last few times i made popcorn i've added a little water to the oil, by accident at first. this could be a coincidence of course but they've turned out perfect, with virtually no unpopped ones and nothing burned. got a funny feeling a sprinkle of water aids the process in some way. i've also added salt and i got a funny feeling that helps too, probably by preventing the corn from sticking, unless it gets dissolved too fast.
i'm not looking for feedback on my admittedly poor research methodology, just curious to see if anyone with more knowledge in physics or chemistry has any ideas about whether, and then how, this could work.
