How people cook with it
These chips are a staple for dipping and snacking. They pair well with a wide variety of accompaniments.
- Dipping into salsa
- Scooping guacamole
- Serving with queso
- Eating plain
Open the bag and serve the chips directly. They are ready to eat as is. For enhanced flavor, they can be served alongside dips such as pico de gallo, bean dip, or a creamy cheese sauce. They also make a good base for loaded nachos when topped with cheese, beans, and other desired ingredients. Their sturdy construction means they hold up well to scooping, even with thicker dips.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to thicker, kettle-cooked tortilla chips, these are lighter and more delicate. Their crispness is achieved through a different frying process, resulting in a less dense bite. The salt seasoning is straightforward, allowing the corn flavor to come through.

How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the bag tightly to maintain freshness and crispness. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Proper storage will prevent the chips from becoming stale or losing their crunch.
