Kettle Cooked Potato Chips
What it is
These are potato chips that have been cooked in a kettle. This method involves cooking the potatoes in batches in oil. This process tends to result in a thicker, crunchier chip compared to those made with continuous fryers. The potatoes are typically sliced and then fried until golden brown and crisp. They are often seasoned after cooking.
