Microwave would be easier because no oil has to be measured out and no pot gets dirty.
i'd say stove
The fastest one has to be microwave `cause it has a higher tecnology
They both pop equally well if instructions are followed.
there are 2 ways to make popcorn. 1. put it in the microwave and pop it. or 2.dump it all out in a pot and cover the pot and the it will pop soon hope i helped you :)
As long as you use regular popcorn kernels with nothing added to them, it really makes no difference in the taste of the popcorn if you pop it in the microwave or in a popcorn maker. However, if you are using the packets of microwave popcorn that have added flavorings and fat, I would say that plain popcorn tastes better. If you want to make popcorn conveniently but without additives, I would recommend putting about a quarter of a cup of popcorn kernels in a regular brown paper bag along with about a teaspoon of vegetable oil and using that to pop the popcorn in the microwave instead of the microwave popcorn bags from the grocery store. You simply add the kernels and oil in the bag, seal it up tightly, then microwave for two to three minutes, until you hear the kernels stop popping. This is significantly healthier, cheaper, and better-tasting than store-bought popcorn.
It doesn't. If directions are followed, the volume should be the same.
It depends on the application, are you using it on the stove, microwave, or your grill. Whirley-Pop makes what many consider to be the best stove-top popper. I have added a link that also shows the other types of popcorn poppers.
1. In the microwave. 2. In a pot on a stove. 3. In a pan over an open fire.
Popcorn is popped by.... Well, first you put corn in a popcorn machine, or, if you don't have one, put it into a pan (with a lid), put it on a stove and start the stove. In a while you'll hear some popping sounds, and, if you want, you can lift the lid and watch the popcorn pop. Then, after a few minutes take the popcorn off the stove and you'll see popcorn. The popcorn is popped because there isn't much air in the pan, right? (That's why you need a lid) and the corn swells up and then...it bursts and is made into...popcorn! Put the popcorn into a bowl, and enjoy! It's OK if there are a few kernels still in the bowl. Don't worry. But still. You can't pop the kernels that are left. They won't pop.
It is possible; however, it is much easier to do so using a stove.
Room temp. popcorn works better than frozen but popcorn cold from the fridge works even better. Freeze some popcorn for at least 1-2 days. And put the other popcorn in the kitchen or wherever an let it sit there. Then put them separately in the microwave for about 2-3 mins. After that you open them up (be careful not to burn yourself) and count the unpopped kernels and the popped kernel's. See how much of a difference there is. I tried this in class with other people. So I know i works.
Benefits of using a popcorn air popper over a stove top or microwave include complete control over ingredients, no need for popping oil, no added oils and no cleanup. You can purchase an Air Popper online from stores such as Walmart and Bed Bath and Beyond.
