Editorial Review: Product Description: The NordicWare 3-Qt. Popper makes light and fluffy popcorn in about 4 minutes. Just place 1/2-cup of popcorn kernels in the bottom bowl and cover with the lid. When the popcorn has finished popping, invert the bottom bowl and lid, and you instantly have a container for your freshly popped corn. No oil needed, makes up to 12 cups of popped corn. Amazon.com Review: Made of gemstone, an unbreakable, chip-proof cookware material, the Nordic Ware corn popper efficiently transmits microwave energy directly to the popcorn kernels, popping them quickly without oil. It produces the results of a hot-air popper without an additional appliance. This oil-free method is refreshing when compared to bagged corn, because you don't have to contend with grease, salt, and artificial flavoring unless you dress the corn yourself after cooking. However, take care to monitor the progress of corn during the first use. The manufacturer lists a three-to-five-minute cook time for 1/2 cup of unpopped kernels, but as microwave ovens vary, it could take considerably less time to pop. And overcooked corn burns fast using this method. Luckily, the base and lid are designed not to warp or melt, so burned kernels won't damage them. Use this versatile popper for cooking, storing, and serving popcorn and other snacks. The popper base is also ovenproof. --Carol Gnojewski Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Ugh, sooo displeased!I purchased this product while on vacation. I happened upon it at a small town pickle factory. I had never seen one like this but I needed to replace my presto powerpop that I had used until the lid fell apart. This product was a huge disappointment! It is much heavier than the powerpop, and it cracked when I placed it in my luggage to take home. I still used it, determined to get some use out of it. Then came the MAJOR disappointment, it gets HOT! I mean REALLY hot! I always ... Read More Rating:  - Nordic Ware 12-cup Microwave PopperThis is an excellent product. Not only is the price right, but it pops most all of the kernels, and the popcorn is neither too tough nor too light. Rating: - Great! Also makes a terrific dough rising bowl!Terrific! No need for additional purchases like the Presto version requires. This works so well I came back for another; my husband likes to pour butter over, and eat out of the bowl, so I had to get my own. Just be careful not to overfill, I use about 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup of kernels. Also doubles as a mixing bowl, and for rising dough! I'm making pizza from scratch, and the dough is resting in there right now. A tip for good popping: Store your loose popcorn in a coffee ... Read More Rating: - Awesome PopperI love this popper. The popcorn cooks perfectly, very light and fluffy without oil. I put nofat butter spray with kosher or sea salt and it is better than the bagged stuff without the fat. Another plus, for some reason there vesy very little odor after cooking so the whole house doesn't smell. My neighbors no longer call and say "So, you're cooking popcorn..." Rating: - It makes the BEST popcorn!I bought this popper when my Presto Power Popper gave out (cover split). I wanted to try Nordicware to see if there was a difference in the popcorn, because I liked the idea of not needing to buy power pads which are hard to find in stores. I usually add a tsp. of canola oil and 1/4 cup of popcorn, and time it about 4 minutes. You do have to listen and remove the popper when the popping starts to slow down so it doesn't burn. (I still haven't tried it without oil) Most of the kernals ... Read More |
