To effectively cover popcorn with butter, the key is even distribution. Here's a simple and effective method:
- Pour half of the melted butter or ghee over the popcorn in a large container or bowl.
- Cover the container or bowl with a lid or plate.
- Shake vigorously to distribute the butter evenly.
- Pour the remaining melted butter over the popcorn.
- Sprinkle with salt (finely ground kosher salt, table salt, or popcorn salt works best) to taste.
- Cover again and shake once more to ensure even coating.
- Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
This method helps prevent soggy popcorn and ensures every kernel gets its share of buttery goodness!
