Tips:

Use fresh popcorn kernels for the best results. Avoid using pre-popped popcorn or microwave popcorn, as these will not give you the same crispy texture.
Heat the oil over medium heat. If the oil is too hot, the popcorn will burn. If the oil is too cold, the popcorn will not pop properly.
Add the popcorn kernels to the oil in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pot, or the popcorn will not pop evenly.
Cover the pot with a lid and shake it gently back and forth over the heat. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the popcorn from burning.
Listen for the popping sounds to slow down. Once the popping sounds have slowed down to about one pop every few seconds, remove the pot from the heat.
Pour the popcorn into a large bowl and season it with your favorite seasonings. Some popular seasonings include Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Enjoy the popcorn while it is still warm and crispy.

Conclusion:

Parmesan garlic popcorn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover popcorn kernels, and it can be customized to your own taste preferences. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a tasty snack that the whole family will love.
