DIY Potato Chips
Whether you’re looking to dial up game night–or knock out a cool side for smashburgers–homemade potato chips are fun and easy to prepare. (Plus, warm, seasoned chips are twice as enticing as tearing open a bag of the usual suspects.) A Japanese mandolin makes quick work of slicing the spuds into thin slices (you’ll want to slice them into a bowl of water to prevent the potatoes from oxidizing). Season the golden, crispy chips when they’re nice and hot - and then watch them disappear.

Ingredients
-
4 medium Russet potatoes, peeled and sliced paper-thin
-
3 tablespoons kosher salt
-
1 quart oil for deep frying
-
Potato Slayer, for seasoning
Directions
Assemble ingredients and fill a large bowl with cold water. Use a mandolin to slice the potatoes paper thin, transferring the slices to the bowl of cold water as you go.
Drain the slices in a colander and rinse under cold water. Refill the bowl with water, add 3 tablespoons of salt, and return the slices back in the bowl. Let potatoes soak in the salty water for at least 30 minutes.
Drain and rinse slices again, and then pat dry.
Heat oil in a deep fryer to 365℉. Working in small batches, fry potato slices until golden. Remove with a spider or slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Continue until all the slices are fried.
Season potato chips to taste with Potato Slayer seasoning.
