continuing the popcorn discussion

I was having a discussion about popcorn with pmjv somewhere else that I want to continue.

To recap, this is the best way to prepare popcorn:

  1. Get a big stainless steel pot
  2. Put your popcorn kernels in such that none are stacked atop each other
  3. Put just enough of a high smoke point neutral oil in the pot to quarter-submerge the kernels
  4. Put the lid on and crank the stove to high heat
  5. DO NOT WALK AWAY FROM THE STOVE WHILE THE HEAT IS ON. IF YOU NEED TO WALK AWAY TURN IT OFF. IF YOU LEAVE IT ON AND UNATTENDED YOU WILL BURN YOUR RESIDENCE DOWN
  6. Wait for it to start popping
  7. Shake the pot every 2 seconds to keep the kernels moving
  8. Once popping slows to 5 seconds between pops, turn the heat off
  9. In another smaller pot, melt some butter
  10. Move the popped popcorn to a bowl
  11. Take some fresh cheese curds, put them in the bowl with the popcorn
  12. Pour the melted butter onto the popcorn-curd mix
  13. Salt
  14. Shake
  15. Eat
