To prepare stovetop popcorn, heat a tablespoon or two of oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add a few kernels to test the heat; they should pop within seconds. Once the oil is hot, add about 1/3 cup of kernels in a single layer. Cover the pot and shake gently as the kernels pop. Remove from heat when popping slows to a few seconds between pops. For an air popper, follow the manufacturer's instructions for adding kernels and operating the machine.
How it differs from similar foods
White popcorn kernels tend to be smaller and produce a lighter, fluffier texture compared to yellow varieties. They also have a slightly milder flavor, making them a good canvas for various seasonings.

How to keep the rest
Store any unpopped kernels in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. This will help maintain their freshness and prevent them from becoming stale or losing their popping ability.
