Cook's Tips:

It’s best to use oils with a high smoke point for popcorn. We recommend:

• Refined (not raw) coconut oil
• Grapeseed oil
• Vegetable oil
• Olive oil (not extra virgin)
• Canola oil
• Peanut oil
• Refined (not raw) avocado oil

If the butter doesn’t completely melt, use a silicone basting brush or spatula to push around the butter until it melts. You can also use room-temperature butter.

Add salt or your favorite seasoning while the popcorn is still warm so it sticks!
