We made our own salt and vinegar chips. You might wonder why in the world I would do such a thing, but go ahead and peek at the list of ingredients. Now, if you take a look at the list of ingredients on a bag of chips from the store you’ll find some other ingredients that you can’t buy at a grocery store.

Can I double or triple this recipe to feed a crowd? You definitely can double or triple this batch. However, keep in mind that these chips will not keep well and you want to eat them when they are fresh. How should I slice the potatoes? You can use the slicer on your food processor, a mandolin, or just show off your mad knife skills. We actually tried a few different slicer options and settled on using the long slit side on a cheese grater. Sweet Potato Chips: Want a healthier option, or just don’t love russet potatoes? Use sweet potatoes instead!
