Directions

  1. Begin by peeling the potatoes. Place the peeled potatoes into a large mixing bowl filled with cold water. Use a mandolin to slice the potatoes as thin as possible, at least 1/16th of an inch. The potato slices should be almost transparent.

  2. Add the sliced potatoes to a large mixing bowl with cold water and kosher salt. Let the potatoes sit in this brine for one to one and a half hours.

  3. Heat canola oil in a heavy bottomed pot or dutch oven to 350°F (176°C).

  4. Transfer the sliced potatoes from the brine and lay them out in a single layer onto a paper towel lined baking sheet. Pat the chips dry.

  5. Working in batches, add the potatoes to the hot oil, making sure to move them constantly. This will help the chips cook more evenly.

  6. Once the chips are golden brown and crispy, use a spider to remove the chips from the hot oil, giving them a moment to drain themselves of excess oil before transferring them to a large mixing bowl and seasoning with salt to taste.
