    As someone who's been regularly using an almost identical bowl for years I'd like to add my personal tips.
    Raw popcorn is indeed painfully bland so flavoring is key to really enjoy this.
    I have no idea where the no oil recommendation comes from since the instructions that came with mine suggested cooking with oil and I never had an issue.
    Here's my best popcorn seasoning refined over the years:
    For one 1/4 or 1/3 cup of corn ( I personally always make the larger portion)
    - One table spoon of corn oil
    - One table spoon of Butter or Margarine
    - 1/4 tea spoon of salt powder
    Cooking with the seasoning makes for a drastically more convenient and enjoyable experience. It's not only easier but also does a much better job.
    I strongly recommend the salt powder as it flavors the kernels much more evenly and significantly improve the taste.
    I use corn oil as I find it enhances the popcorn flavor instead of dampening it.
    Happy popping

To 1/4 cup pop corn, we add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of Flavacol (this is what they use in movie theaters to season the pop corn). Microwave for 2:20 and you have movie theater quality pop corn. It's great!

    I just use a microwavable glass mixing bowl and a corelle plate, works great. The microwave power/wattage does matter. I made it in a 700 watt and an 1100 watt microwave, and it would always burn in the 700 but not in the 1100 because it pops faster and the popped kernels have less chance to start burning. This bowl did have fewer unpopped kernels than mine but not a lot more

    I’ve used one of these silicone microwaveable popcorn poppers for years with the Orville popcorn kernels and have no complaints. The resulting popcorn is far superior to the bag kind, and the only fat is whatever you may choose to add for flavor. The floppiness allows you to tuck the lid inside and collapse the bowl for space-saving storage between uses. As you found, you wouldn’t want to put a hot bowl in your lap anyway.

Adding the coconut oil and salt makes it taste just like theater popcorn, IMO. I've also been known to add more than a 1/4 cup, as much as a rounded 1/2 cup causing the popcorn to pop over the bowl and the lid to go askew, my microwave is clean so I sweep the popped kernels into my bowl. I prefer this popcorn bowl over my real popcorn machine maker, less mess to clean and the popcorn tastes just as great!

    I'm biased for Orville Redenbacher (1907-95). I met him at a reception in college around 1980 that he attended because his granddaughter was in my dorm. The instant he found out that we had popcorn out for snacks he made a beeline for it, and examined it closely kernel by kernel until he declared that it was "his" popcorn and that we had cooked and seasoned it properly... and he was correct. What a guru! He was very interesting to talk to, knew positively everything there was to know about popcorn, and dressed and spoke exactly as you'd expect from his many TV commercials.

    The instructions with mine said to use no more than a tablespoon of oil. I use 1/2 tablespoon for 3 T of popcorn. I use popcorn setting and it works well. Just be very careful the lid doesn't create a vacuum!

    I might have to try this. My current method is old school, a pan with a lid, some popcorn oil, and Orville's yellow popcorn. What I like best is as soon as the popcorn is done, I can toss some butter into the same pan and get a nice foamy butter to pour on top of the popcorn. But this looks like it might do a good job too. Thanks for sharing!

    I've been using this thing for a while now. And this is how I salt the popcorn: I put salt in the bowl, mix it with four tablespoons of water and add the corn. The water evaporates first, and a thin layer of salt covers the corn kernels. Very simple. Sometimes I also add yeast flakes.

    I got a glass atomizer to put olive oil and I lightly Spritz the popcorn with it and sprinkle it with salt give it a toss and it's good to go it's so delicious that way.
    By the way I season in a separate bowl it's nice to keep the popcorn bowl clean and not have to constantly have to wash it.
    I use Iberian olive oil which is blended with sunflower oil it is very light and delicious. Also I use a fine grain of salt sprinkled on it.

    I’ve owned several microwave popcorn poppers over the years.
    They’ve all worked well,
    The thing I like best about using them is the popcorn is very dry & crisp, probably because microwaves work by displacing moisture from the food it cooks (ever notice how food can dry out in the microwave?)
    Popcorn made on the stove & even packaged microwave popcorn traps a lot of steam & the popcorn isn’t as crisp.
    Just reconcile yourself to adding butter & seasonings.
    No big deal & you can control the amount.

    • @anti-ethniccleansing465

      I have an electric air popper, but I want to start making popcorn that is like movie theater popcorn, so I’m in the market for a new popper.
      Right now I am debating between buying a whirlypop stovetop popper, this silicone microwave popper, or possibly the “Stir Crazy” or Dash electric hot oil popper.
      Is there really a noticeable taste/texture difference between popcorn made with oil in this silicone bowl in the microwave and popcorn made in the whirlypop or electric oil popper?
      Besides any possible taste/texture difference, the other thing I’m worried about with the silicone bowls is that they seem to be all made in China (so I worry about the quality/healthiness of how it’s made), and they even have the California prop 65 cancer warning attached to them on their Amazon pages.
      What are your thoughts, if you don’r mind my asking?

      @remyr5749 3 года назад

      Same material, same design same result, you can't go wrong. I bought an $8 one from Amazon. It works best with just kernals. When you add butter and oil to the mix, it significantly increases popping time and burn risk. I still get better results via stove top with butter flavored coconut oil and Flavicol.
