Housemade Potato Chips
Ingredients
2 medium potatoes, peeled and sliced paper-thin
1 1/2 tablespoons salt, plus more to taste
1 quart oil for deep frying ( I use peanut oil)
Directions
- Transfer potato slices to a large bowl of cold water as you slice them.
- Drain slices and rinse under cold water. Refill the bowl with water, add 1 1/2 tablespoons salt, and put slices back in the bowl. Let potatoes soak in the salty water for at least 30 minutes.
- Drain and rinse slices again. Pat dry.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
- Working in small batches, fry potato slices until golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Continue until all of the slices are fried.
- Season potato chips with additional salt or other seasonings if desired.
