The end result was sooo cute! Like dollhouse popcorn! And it tastes to
Angela and I just like popcorn. Alas, we didn't get very much of it. Maybe
2 T. each after it was popped. I used too much oil and not enough sorghum.
I wasn't sure how much it would expand. By the time I stuffed the paper
towel into the pan to absorb some of the oil, it was already popping.

I may have taken it from the heat too quickly as well. I thought it was
burning. It didn't taste burned though. Very tasty little addition to our
dinner of soup and salad.

Can it be dry-popped in a microwave (either in a paperbag or a microwave
popcorn maker), like popcorn?

I saw a discussion of this on some food forum when I did a search for how to
pop it. Some had success with a hot air popper but others said it just sat
there, clogging the mechanism and burning. I don't know about doing it in
the microwave. I think the problem is that the kernels are so small. You
have to shake the pan a lot to keep it from burning.

Haha ,well-done.maybe next time i can do just like you .
