Cape Cod Kettle Cooked Potato Chips, Back Bay Crab Seasoning
What it is
These are kettle-cooked potato chips seasoned with a blend reminiscent of Back Bay crab seasoning. The chips are made from potatoes that are sliced and then cooked in small batches. This cooking method results in a distinct texture and flavor. The seasoning aims to capture the savory and slightly briny notes often found in crab-inspired dishes.
How people cook with it
These chips offer a unique flavor profile that can enhance snacking occasions. They are a good choice for those seeking something beyond standard potato chip flavors.
- As a standalone snack
- With sandwiches
- As a side for picnics
- For casual gatherings
Open the bag and enjoy the chips directly. They are ready to eat as is. The bold seasoning makes them a flavorful option for dipping into various sauces or dips, though they are robust enough to stand alone. Consider serving them alongside lighter fare to provide a contrasting taste and texture. They can also be a crunchy element added to certain salads or as a topping for some casseroles if desired, though their primary use is as a snack.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike mass-produced chips, kettle-cooked chips are known for their thicker cut and satisfying crunch. The Back Bay Crab seasoning offers a departure from common flavors like salt and vinegar or barbecue, providing a more complex, savory, and seafood-inspired taste experience.
Who it is for
Anyone looking for a flavorful and textured potato chip experience will enjoy these.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining chips in an airtight container or resealable bag. Keep them in a cool, dry place to maintain their crispness and prevent the seasoning from losing its potency. Ensure the bag is sealed tightly to avoid exposure to air and moisture.
