To use, simply add the recommended amount of Orville Redenbacher's Butter Classic Popcorn Oil to your popcorn popper along with the kernels. The oil will heat up with the kernels, coating them as they pop. This ensures an even distribution of the buttery flavor throughout your batch of popcorn. You can also drizzle a little extra on top after popping for an intensified taste. It's a straightforward way to elevate homemade popcorn.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike melted butter, this oil is a stable liquid at room temperature and is formulated to withstand high popping temperatures without burning as easily. It provides a consistent buttery essence that is integrated during the popping, rather than added afterward. This results in a different flavor profile and texture compared to popcorn dressed with liquid butter.
