Speaking of popcorn, I can always think of an uncle making popcorn with a special pressure cooker on the roadside when I was a child. He kept shaking the handle of the pot, and the milky smell of popcorn drifted far away, which always seduced me. Every time I see my uncle selling popcorn, I have to drag my mother to buy it. If I buy a 5-yuan one, I can eat it for a long time, which is very satisfying.
At that time, I didn't know that all the popcorn outside was made of margarine. After I fell in love with cooking, I began to explore more healthy foods and always wanted to copy this childhood delicacy. In fact, homemade popcorn is very simple, and home-made popcorn needs no special tools, just a pan. How to make delicious caramel popcorn by hand?

special corn kernels (spherical or butterfly) for popcorn: 12g, butter: 3g.

Production steps:
1. Put butter in the pot, and turn off the heat after the butter melts.
2. Pour in the fried corn, mix the corn and butter with a spoon, let the corn "roll" in the butter and coat it with butter evenly.
3. Spread the corn kernels out on the bottom of the pot, cover the lid and fire. At first, the fire can be a little bigger. After about a minute or two, I saw the corn flowers start to "jump" happily.
4. With more and more popcorn, turn it to low heat and shake the pot from time to time to prevent it from sticking to the bottom.
5. Turn off the fire when the popcorn basically doesn't keep popping.
6. The popcorn shop is open and cool.
