Popcorn!!!
How do you pop popcorn the way without just sticking a bag into the microwave?
I think you buy kernels (any recommendations for where I can get these and what brand?) then place them in a pan (what kind? how deep?) and some oil (again, what kind? and how much? or do I use butter? or is it magarine I put?) and cover it (how? the cover for the pan or aluminum foil) and cook them over a stove? How long do I wait? And if I wanted to add cheese, what stage do I do that? Thanks in advance!

Homemade Cheese Popcorn
* Coat a large pot with olive oil and place over medium-high heat. You want a pot that's big enough to boil pasta or a few ears of corn so the popcorn has plenty of room to pop.
* Once the oil is beginning to sizzle, pour in a cup of popcorn kernels.
* Cover the pot, and let the popping begin.
* Shake the pot from time to time while the corn is popping to keep the bottom layer from scorching.
* When you start hearing only one pop every 10 seconds or so, turn the heat off. Let the last few kernels pop before removing the lid.
* Drizzle the popcorn with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt, black pepper, and freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese to taste.
This recipe is great too!
I love the taste of it!

I love making popcorn like this!
Kernels: Any kind will do. You should be able to get then at any grocery store.
Pan: I use a cooking pot. A fairly large one, too.
Oil: Just enough to coat all of the seeds. About a half cup or so should do it.
Cover: The pot lid, but make sure to hold it in place.
How to cook it: Don't leave it alone! It'll just burn. You have to constantly shuffle it back and forth over the burner, so that the popcorn will all pop evenly.
After it's all popped, you can put whatever you'd like on it.
If you want an easier way to do this, try Jiffy Pop.
