To prepare, heat a tablespoon or two of oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add about a third of a cup of the popcorn kernels to the hot oil, ensuring they are in a single layer. Cover the pot, leaving the lid slightly ajar to allow steam to escape. As the kernels begin to pop, gently shake the pot occasionally to prevent burning. Once popping slows to several seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat. Season with salt or your favorite toppings.
How it differs from similar foods

How to keep the rest
After opening, store the remaining kernels in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. This helps maintain the kernels' moisture content, ensuring they pop well. Avoid storing near heat sources or in humid environments.
