When popping popcorn, the amount of moisture that is contained in the popping container can cause the popcorn to not be as crunchy. So, the container needs to allow moisture to escape so you end up with crunchy popcorn.

The type of oil used to pop your popcorn is also important. The oil can alter the taste and it can add to the calorie content of the popcorn, so choose carefully. Coconut oil is commonly used by professionals because it is said to give the best flavor, but it is high in fat. Canola oil is another lower fat choice that is commonly used.

Lastly, you want to consider what to put on them after it is made. There are numerous choices, from traditional butter to sweet caramel to spicy cayenne pepper. You can choose to add actual butter or just a butter flavoring. You can add powered seasonings or actual herbs and spices. It is all up to you to create the popcorn the way you like it.

Choosing your popcorn supplies is important to the final product. You have to make good decisions so you end up with the crunchy treat you so love to eat made to perfection.
