Making Microwave Pop Corn In A Paper Bag

Today we made homemade popcorn in our microwave, using a plain paper bag.


To do this fun and simple family food craft, all you need is;

• brown paper bags
• vegetable oil(1/2 to 1 teaspoon)
• spoon
• popcorn kernels
• a 1/3 cup(59ml)
• stapler (this is optional, just close bag really tight!)
• microwave
• bowls
  
  
  
  First, you fill the 1/3 cup with popcorn kernels.
• Second, pour oil into the measuring cup on the kernals. 
• Third, open a paper bag and pour the mixture in.
• Fourth, Staple or fold bag closed. Hold tightly and shake bag furiously (that's a joke), for 5-10 seconds.
• Fifth, You should see splotches all over the bag from the oil inside. Insert bag into microwave for 2 minutes, until popping slows down.
• With oven mitt or paper towel, remove bag from microwave and set on flat surface. Insert salt, butter, and/or powdered cheese. If you want, dump contents from bag into a big mixing bowl for movie nights.

I suggest Home Alone.

Enjoy.
