To prepare, simply place one bag of popcorn in the center of your microwave. Close the door and set the microwave to the popcorn setting or cook on high power for two to four minutes. Listen carefully for the popping to slow down to one or two seconds between pops, then stop the microwave. Carefully remove the hot bag, open it away from your face to avoid steam, and pour the popcorn into a bowl. You can add extra butter or seasonings if desired.
