CRISPY PARMESAN BUTTERNUT SQUASH CHIPS

Steps:

• Remove the top cylinder portion of the butternut squash and peel with a vegetable peeler. Discard or use the bulb portion for something else. Using a mandoline, finely slice round chips from the peeled cylinder and hold in ice water for 30 minutes to chill. Preheat 2 to 3 inches of oil in a heavy-based pot to 320 degrees F add the fresh herbs and fry until they stop sizzling. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Dry chips between paper towels then fry in small batches for 2 to 3 minutes until golden and crispy. Season with salt and shower with fresh grated Parmesan and crumbled herbs.

EASY OVEN BAKED SQUASH CHIPS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Using either a mandolin or a knife, cut the squash into very thin slices. Spray a cookie sheet (or two) liberally with cooking spray. Arrange the squash slices on the cookie sheets, ensuring that they don't touch (they can be really close to each other, but not touching). Preheat the oven to 200°F. Evenly sprinkle salt over the squash slices. Be careful not to use too much salt because the chips will shrink while cooking, which means they could end up being overly salty. You can always add more salt after they are baked. Sprinkle any additional desired seasonings on the chips. Put the cookie sheets in the preheated oven. Let the squash chips bake for 2-3 hours (check them at 2 hours and see how long they need from there). The longer you bake them, the crunchier they will be. Remove the chips from the oven when done, let cool, and serve with your favorite dips or on their own.

ACORN SQUASH CHIPS

• Line 2 baking sheets with silicone mats. Quarter 1 medium acorn squash and scoop out the seeds. Slice the squash quarters crosswise about 1/16 inch thick using a mandoline. Drizzle with olive oil and toss; arrange on the baking sheets in a single layer and sprinkle with salt. Bake at 250 degrees F, 50 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through. Flip the slices and continue baking until browned, about 15 more minutes. Transfer the chips to a rack to cool.

ANISE-SPICED SQUASH SOUP WITH FENNEL CHIPS

Steps:

• Make soup:
• Cook fennel, squash, onion, and anise seeds in butter in a 6- to 8-quart pot over moderate heat, covered, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes. Add water and simmer, covered, until squash is very tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Purée soup in batches in a blender (use caution when blending hot liquids) and season with salt and pepper.
• Make fennel chips:
• Preheat oven to 225°F.
• Boil water and sugar in a small saucepan, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and add lemon juice. Cut fennel bulb lengthwise into paper-thin slices using a mandoline or other manual slicer. Pour sugar mixture over fennel in a bowl and let stand 5 minutes.
• Put Silpat or Exopat pad on a baking sheet. Shake off excess liquid from fennel slices and arrange on pad in 1 layer (don't let slices touch). Bake in middle of oven 1 hour, or until dry and crisp. Working quickly, carefully peel chips off liner and transfer to a rack to cool. Top soup with chips.
