MOVIE THEATER POPCORN (SERIOUSLY)
Taking reviewers suggestions, I've modified the salt content to 1 teaspoon, thank you for the feedback. When I was a young man, I worked at a theater. One of the main differences in the way that theaters pop their corn is the addition of finely ground salt into the pot while it is popping. Well, that and that the oil is tinted yellow with coloring. You can add as little or as much salt as you like, these are just my preferences. This recipe is done on the cooktop.

Steps:
- Grind the kosher salt into a fine powder in a spice/coffee grinder (this step is very important).
- In a heavy pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
- Place one kernel of corn in the pot, when it pops you are ready to add the other ingredients.
- After the kernel pops, add the popcorn and the finely ground salt into the pot and cover. Give the pot a vigorous shake to distribute corn, oil and salt.
- Pop until complete, I usually pop until there is only one or two pops per second.
- Do not burn!
- One Taste and you'll see it's perfect "Movie Theater Popcorn"!

Steps:
- Pop the corn using your favorite method-- I use hot air-- and place it in a roasting pan or on a cookie sheet.
- Bake the popcorn in a 200-210 degree oven for a minimum of 1 hour.
- I've let it bake for more than 4 hours and it just keeps getting better.
- Remove popcorn from oven and season with your favorite toppings-- I use olive oil and salt and sometimes a sprinkling of nutritional yeast.
- But, melted butter and salt is also delicious.

HOMESTYLE MOVIE THEATER POPCORN
My recipe for a movie-theater-good popcorn snack. An alternate version of this may be prepared, using 1/3-1/2 cup coconut oil before popping, then seasoning with fine sea salt or popcorn salt only, after popping.

Steps:
- FOR A NON-GREASY "POPPED-IN" BUTTER FLAVOR -- INCREASE POPPING OIL TO 1/3-1/2 CUP, THEN SKIP ADDING THE TOPPING OIL. FOR AN ALTERNATIVE VERSION, USE PURE EXPELLER-PRESSED COCONUT OIL AS THE ONLY OIL (ADD 1/3-1/2 CUP COCONUT OIL BEFORE POPPING, THEN SEASON WITH SALT).
- SELECT a large heavy-bottomed 3 quart pot with an accompanying lid and place over medium heat.
- ADD 1/4 cup Orville Redenbacher's Buttery Flavor Popping & Topping oil.
- DROP a 3 or 4 popcorn kernals into pot and cover; WAIT until at least one kernal pops.
- UNCOVER and add 1/2 cup popcorn.
- COVER again then swirl pot gently to saturate kernals.
- AFTER kernals begin to pop, shake pan every few seconds until popping slows down.
- TURN off heat when popping slows down.
- REMOVE from heat, remove lid and season popcorn immediately with salt.
- SERVE and enjoy.
