Perfect stovetop popcorn

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp. corn kernels

Preparation:

1. In a 5-6 quart heavy-bottomed saucepan with a lid, heat 1/3 cup vegetable oil (try coconut oil) until very hot but not smoking (200-230°C).
2. Add a few kernels of popcorn. Once they pop, add 1 cup of kernels, spreading them out in a single layer, and cover with a lid, leaving it slightly ajar. Shake the pan to prevent burning. When the popping subsides, remove the pan from the heat and let it sit until it stops. Sprinkle the popcorn with fine salt.
