How my imaginary popcorn-popping holy grail became reality.
All of them worked fine (I stand by our stovetop method!

), but I still felt like I was chasing after some imaginary popcorn-popping holy grail.
The best popcorn popper that Ive ever found is theW&P Microwave Silicone Popper.
I want those kernels fully popped and looking like exploded cotton balls.
No shy, undersized, barely-popped kernels in my bowl, kindly.
I wanted something that wasreusable, that made at leasteight cups of popcorn, and thatdidnt require oil.
The W&P Popper is all these things.
But not the W&P Popper!
The popcorn is also exactly the way I like it.
The individual pieces are fully exploded, extremely light, and supremely crunchy.
Second, the silicone material of the bowl gets very hot in the microwave.
If you want to add any toppings, you gotta pour the popcorn into a separate bowl.
This isnt a deal breaker for me, but I mention it in case it is one for you!
Then I layer on another third and repeat, finishing with the final layer.
