help Microwave Popcorn Maker FAQ
Is a silicone microwave popcorn maker dishwasher safe?
Yes, almost all silicone microwave popcorn makers, such as the popular Salbree or Ecolution models, are 100% dishwasher safe. Because they are made of food-grade silicone, they can be easily placed on the top rack of your dishwasher for simple cleanup.
Do I need to add oil to a microwave popcorn popper?
No, most microwave popcorn makers are designed to pop kernels without requiring any oil at all. You simply pour in the loose kernels, put the lid on, and microwave for two to four minutes for a healthy, oil-free snack.
How long does it take to pop corn in a glass microwave popper like the Nordic Ware?
In a standard glass or silicone popper, popping usually takes between 2 and 4 minutes depending on your microwave's wattage. You should stop the microwave when you hear the popping intervals slow down to 2 to 3 seconds apart.
Why does my silicone popcorn maker leave so many unpopped kernels?
Leaving unpopped kernels often happens when you use the popcorn button on your microwave, as it typically runs too long and scorches the silicone. It is better to manually listen for the slowing of pops and stop the machine early to avoid burning the batch.
