SALT AND VINEGAR POTATO CHIPS
My children love salt and vinegar chips, and I had some potatoes to use, so I thought this would be a nice treat for them. I took my French fry recipe and converted it slightly, though the soaking in vinegar idea was my mom's! I hope your family likes them as much as mine did! These are excellent for a cookout; make them a day ahead and surprise everybody!

Steps:
- Using a mandolin, carefully cut the potatoes into 1/16-inch-thick slices. They should be thin enough to see through. Add the potato slices to a bowl and cover them with the distilled vinegar. Cover the bowl and let sit at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes.
- Fill a large Dutch oven with 2-inches of vegetable oil and heat to 350 degrees F and attach a deep fat fry thermometer. Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper towels.
- Add the kosher salt and malt vinegar powder to a small bowl and mix. Set the mixture aside.
- Remove the potato slices from the vinegar and dry completely. This can be done by arranging the potato slices on clean kitchen towels or paper towels in an even layer, making sure not to overlap them.
- Add the dry potato slices to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 1 minute and 30 seconds. Remove the chips with a slotted spoon and drain on the prepared baking sheet. Season liberally with the salt/malt vinegar powder mixture and give them a gentle toss to coat all the chips in the seasoning.
- Continue frying the rest of the potato slices, making sure that the oil returns to 350 degrees F before adding another batch. Be sure to season each additional batch. Chips can be stored in an airtight container for 3 to 5 days.

Steps:
- Place vinegar in a large soup pot and bring to a boil. Add potatoes and boil for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 30 minutes.
- Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Drain potatoes but do not rinse. Arrange potato slices on the baking sheet, making sure none are overlapping. Cover the top of the potatoes with paper towels. Repeat layers until all potatoes have been dried.
- Preheat an air fryer oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions. Place the basket rack in the top slot. This will act as a shield so that the fan does not blow the chips around once they start to fry.
- Arrange potatoes slices on the remaining 3 racks and lightly sprinkle with salt. Place racks in the air fryer oven and cook for 10 minutes. Remove the top rack of chips and transfer chips to a plate. Set timer for 2 more minutes and then remove the next highest rack of chips. Set timer for 1 minute for the final rack of chips. Serve immediately.

SALT AND VINEGAR KETTLE POTATO CHIPS RECIPE - (4.7/5)

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Line a cooking tray with tin foil for easy clean up. Sprinkle a thin layer of sea salt on the tin foil. No need to coat with oil. Wash and peel your potato with a vegetable peeler. Be careful! This is a great way to lose skin on your fingers. Use the vegetable peeler to make very thin slices. Try to keep every slice the same width. Now take your potato slices and press between paper towels to absorb excess moisture. Put them in a medium mixing bowl and pour the Sub Oil mixture on them. Add additional red wine vinegar to the mixture, depending on your tastes. Let this mixture sit for 15-20 minutes for the best flavor. The potatoes may start to turn brown, but don't worry - they'll turn brown anyways after they cook! After 20 minutes, cover the baking sheet with a layer of the potato slices. Remember, you don't need to put additional oil on the tray, a thin layer of salt will suffice. Try not to let any of the slices touch, ensuring a thin layer. For every potato that you cook, you'll have to cook two batches. Now place the tray in your preheated oven and set the timer for 5 minutes. Depending upon the amount of oil used and the potato slice thickness, the cooking time may vary. Therefore, it is crucial that you watch the entire cooking process to ensure your chips don't burn. Once they turn a nice golden brown, they are down cooking! Carefully remove the tray and put the first batch of chips onto a plate lined with paper towels. Place another layer of paper towels on top to help absorb the grease.
Tips:
- Use high-quality potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished potatoes with a thin skin. Russet potatoes are a popular choice for making salt and vinegar chips because they have a high starch content, which results in a crispy chip.
- Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly: This will help the chips to cook evenly. You can use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice the potatoes.
- 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 slices with salt and vinegar: You can use a store-bought salt and vinegar seasoning mix or make your own by combining equal parts salt and white vinegar.
- Fry the potato slices in hot oil: Use a deep fryer or a large saucepan filled with at least 2 inches of oil. Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit before adding the potato slices.
- Cook the potato slices until they are golden brown and crispy: This will take about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Drain the potato slices on paper towels: This will help to remove excess oil from the chips.
- Season the potato slices with additional salt and vinegar, if desired: You can also sprinkle the chips with other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.
Conclusion:
Salt and vinegar chips are a delicious and addictive snack that can be made easily at home. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create your own batch of crispy, tangy chips that are sure to satisfy your cravings. So next time you're looking for a crunchy snack, give these homemade salt and vinegar chips a try.
