What do you do when...
1. You have no instant popcorn in the pantry
&
2. You can't find the cord to your popcorn popper
.....You improvise
Our kids have been really sick. There are some yucky, nasty viruses out there right now. We have taken it slow and they have not eaten much lately. Their one request the other night was popcorn, hot chocolate and The Polar Express. These kids love Christmas
{but then again.... who doesn't?}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
So here is how I made
Do It Yourself: Homemade Popcorn
4 T of canola oil into a large pot
1 cup of kernels
pinch of sea salt
Pour canola oil into large pot.
Pour kernels into large pot. It is important that the oil be COLD when you add the kernels. Make sure all kernels are laying against the bottom of the pan and not piled on top of one another.
Turn stove on medium.
Grab a lid. When those kernels start popping you are gonna need something to keep them contained.
You may have to move the pot back and forth on the stove top to ensure that you evenly distribute heat and get all of the kernels popped.
Just like instant....when the kernels slow in popping....you are done.

They did enjoy hot chocolate {but it was instant}.
And The Polar Express....they loved it like it was the first time they had seen it!
