Make something good.

  1. 01

    Heat a large stainless steel bowl (or cast-iron skillet) over medium heat. Once hot, add 1 tsp clarified butter, salt, and popcorn kernels and cover with perforated aluminum foil or spatter screen.

  2. 02

    Cook, shaking the pan continuously with tongs, for 45 seconds to 1 minute, or until popping slows to about 3 seconds between pops.

  3. 03

    Move popped corn to a large serving bowl, leaving any unpopped kernels behind.

  4. 04

    Toss with melted butter, salt, and any optional seasonings. Serve warm.
