Time 1h40m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 medium potatoes, (about 1 1/4 pounds), scrubbed
Extra-virgin olive oil, for frying (3 to 4 cups)
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Very thinly slice potatoes on a mandolin (about 1/16 inch thick). Cover in cold water (separately, if using multiple colors) for 1 hour. Swish potato slices around to release starch, then drain. Repeat until water is no longer cloudy. Spread slices out on kitchen towels and pat dry. Let air-dry 15 minutes.
  • Fill a medium heavy pot halfway with extra-virgin olive oil. Clip a candy or frying thermometer to pot and heat oil to 345°. Add a small handful of potato slices and stir to break apart (temperature will drop and oil will vigorously bubble).
  • Turn and stir potatoes until bubbling stops completely, about 4 minutes per batch; do not let temperature go above 350°. Remove and drain on paper towels. (If they are still slightly soft in the center after resting a minute, return to oil briefly.) Sprinkle with salt.
  • Return oil to 345° between batches. (You can reuse the oil later to make more chips; store it in a tightly covered jar for up to a month.) Chips are best eaten the day they are made, but can be stored, once cooled completely, in an airtight container up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of potatoes: For a more flavorful chip, use a combination of different types of potatoes, such as Yukon Gold, russet, and red potatoes.
  • Slice the potatoes thinly: The thinner the potato slices, the crispier the chips will be. Aim for slices that are about 1/8-inch thick.
  • Soak the potato slices in water: This will help to remove excess starch from the potatoes, which will prevent them from sticking together during frying.
  • Season the potato chips before frying: You can use a variety of seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, or paprika. Be sure to season the chips evenly on both sides.
  • Fry the potato chips in hot oil: The ideal temperature for frying potato chips is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a deep fryer or a large saucepan filled with oil to fry the chips. Be sure to fry the chips in small batches so that they don't overcrowd the pan.
  • Drain the potato chips on paper towels: Once the potato chips are fried, drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Conclusion:

Red, white, and blue potato chips are a fun and festive snack that is perfect for any patriotic holiday. They are easy to make and can be seasoned with a variety of flavors. With a little bit of planning, you can make these chips in no time at all.
