Make a batch of old fashioned popcorn with the Whirley Pop.
Many people are turning away from bags of microwave popcorn and discovering the attraction of making popcorn the old-fashioned way. While your parents might have made popcorn in a pan on the stove, they may have owned a classic Whirley Pop popcorn popper. The Whirley Pop's classic design resembles an ordinary pan with a lid, but the stirring mechanism inside creates even heating in the kernels and helps to prevent burnt popcorn. Try making your next batch of popcorn with a Whirley Pop and you'll have a healthy low-fat snack.
Instructions
1. Place your Whirley Pop popcorn popper on a stove burner. Check to make sure that all three clips holding the lid are secure.
2. Raise the hinged lid half. Measure in 1 tsp. of vegetable oil and 1/4 cup of popcorn kernels. Close the lid.
3. Turn on the stove burner to medium heat. Turn the crank at the top of the Whirley Pop with one hand while holding the pot handle with the other. Continue turning the crank while the popcorn is popping.
4. Stop turning and remove the Whirley Pop from the stove burner when it becomes difficult to turn the crank. This will happen when the pot is full of popped corn and there isn't much room left for the crank. In most instances this should take about 3 minutes.
5. Tip the Whirley Pop over a large bowl and allow the popcorn to pour out into the bowl. Top your popcorn with butter, salt or any desired seasoning.
