You asked for it! :) Here's how to make seasonings for potato chips: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqfLlmCcaruioLM

[@knora2974]

Hi, at 15:06 you mentioned "rinsed and dried potato". May I know what did you use to rinse it? Is it just plain water, or a mixture?

[@flashy5150]

I think that the reason why chip companies keep their chips very light and non flavored is because they add artificial flavors to them. If we cook our chips till they burn or brown a little, that wouldn’t taste very good with the artificial flavors. Also, if you read the ingredients on a bag of chips, many of them add MSG(Monosodium Glutamate) to enhance the flavor and it makes you want to eat the whole bag. It does cause stomach discomfort and headaches to many people. The homemade ones are much better for anybody.

[@ferrarirobin]

Enlighten me. What defines 'wet'? It's something i've been wondering for a while now :p

[@noob19087]

@@ferrarirobin I don't have a good definition for 'wet', and I doubt that there even really is one, but I'll try my best. I guess for most people something being wet simply means that it's soaked or covered in water. You can soak things in oil too, but since oil has different properties than water (lower heat capacity, less surface tension, lower density, non polar, et cetera) we humans don't consider it 'wet'. Maybe something with properties similar to water could be considered 'wet' too. Also another big thing is that water is really good at putting out fires, while oil is not. Also water evaporates relatively quickly, while most oils don't, which leads to us considering something being wet a temporary state which resolves itself over time while if you spilled oil on something you'd actively have to get it off.

[@phoenix3754]

I make kettle chips all the time and I agree, the brown ones do taste better. I think it has to do with the caramelization of the sugars which we try to avoid using the vinegar method. The caramelized ones taste better. For cutting, earlier I used to halve the potatoes in the middle and cut really thin slices shaped like a "D" using a serrated knife by hand. I had trained myself by doing this repeatedly so many times that the chips used to be see through. Now I just use a mandolin because it is equally good and also because hand cutting is just too much effort sometimes. Then I wash off the starch until the water starts turning somewhat clear. Then I freeze them for just enough time for the water inside the cells to crystalize and break the cell walls. Usually it means around 2 hours. After that, you put frozen chips into hot oil keeping in mind that the oil will boil over and the frying vessel needs to have enough margin so that it doesn't spill. This makes the temperature of the oil drop and also thaws the chips so that now the water will evaporate easily (the cell walls are already ruptured due to freezing). And I never cooked in small batches. Just keep turning the chips frequently for even cooking. fry until golden brown and crisp. Keep in mind that even after you remove them from the oil, the chips will turn further darker brown outside the oil as they continue to cook in their own residual heat, so remove them slightly before you think they have achieved the correct color. Salt to taste and enjoy.

[@CHEFPKR]

I absolutely need this in my life.

[@Alexander_Cid]

you can make a video citing his video, pseudo colav xD If i can suggest something, when i make fries i first prepare a mix of salt/ bit of ginger powder/onion powder/ bit of smoked paprika/garlic powder/dill, then I cut the potatoes thin , clean them with water in the tap and all fry them as if preparing them for a Spanish omelette, take them to a bowl, mix into them while hot and dry and take a few for me because my family and frie devour them xD

If your junk food mood coincides with your 'feeling like doing nothing' mood there's the chance you will talk yourself out from making junk food, at the end of the day you will eat less of the stuff." It's putting one problematic habit against the other so they cancel each other out: either you put yourself out of your mood of doing nothing trough cooking, or you don't eat junk food because the only option you gave yourself is to make it if you want it, but you don't want to do anything.

The first time you do this, if you're like me, you'll be tempted to take them out too soon out of fear of burning them, but leave them in until they get nice and dark. I took them out as the oil was just a little over 300 degrees, which is quite a change from the typical "preheat oil to 375" standard.

Impressed as to how much thought went into this. Great video!

[@AbhayRajKapoor]

Totally fantastic video!!! I am definitely going to try this … I still only use your recipe for hummus, it’s the best, and I am sure this one will be too! Thank you 😊

[@KirillBry]

Well, with now at least two videos about crispy snacks; as someone living in germany you might know a snack called "Pombär". After induldging way too much in the Ketchup flavored ones, i tried to look for a recipe to make, at least something similar, at home but no luck. It would mean the world to me if you could find me a way to make those at home, and getting a spicemix similar to that ketchup flavor would be legendary!

[@Sycokay]

I guess you would need an extruder for those

[@ivovonbank8895]

as someone who hasn't lived in germany for years you awakening memories i didn't know i had.

[@SeverusVergiliusMaro]

Hi Andong! Here in the US, I think the most classic non-salt chip flavor has to be Sour Cream and Onion (or BBQ) and I would LOVE to see your take it on it so I could make some at home!! Bonus points if you can do the Canadian classic: potato chips "all-dressed" that, too, would warm my soul

[@brenobarbosa3489]

Lol amazing video lots of information on something so simple. Beautiful science

[@fluffyflareon4152]

found this when i was about to make potato chips and am very happy I did it helped a lot. also subscribing this dude is awesome how have i not heard of him yet

[@ochular]

Watching this while eating kettle chips just felt right. Thank you again for yet another amazingly educational video, Andong!

[@Elias.323]

I love it that you don't just cook. It's actually kind of like school with the explanation but somehow cooler. Your videos are awesome keep it up✌🏼

[@wakeupuk3860]

Compared to the other videos about making crisps without doubt this is the best, to the point, factual and common sense even showing just using a cheap kitchen greater slicer. Only thing after watching and very impressed with the effort and time to cook them i.e. using chopsticks to take out cooked ones - I just could not be bothered to spend that time for a bag of chips I can buy just for £1 but all respect to you Sir.

[@datacrunch]

Dude, that was a great video. I'm going to try them. Now to see what else you have on your channel.

[@8fingerbot470]

The knowledge I got after watching this is just 😂❤️

[@goki22]

Brilliant Video, kettle chips all the way for me although, The main reason I like chips is not just because of the crisp, but mainly for the seasoning the use, I was addicted to the stuff and would lick it from the crisp like it was an oreo! Please make an episode about how to make and more importantly apply the seasoning flavour like they do in the factory, that would be a great video too :)

[@melodyleong]

I'm an original lays potato chip person myself (so are my fellow countrymen, judging by how ths was one of the chips that was out of stock when we were on lockdown)

[@playdoe3275]

lol i luv the flavors 2.tho i don't like the salt on them. i wish i can make or find chips with theflavor but no salt.:(

[@truptipatil6245]

OMG! I learned so much from you. Very much needed information. Thanks a ton.

[@bigalbbq4597]

I just made them your way. Never made potato chips, made corn chips from tortillas and they are fantastic. These were goodness unearthed brand I think? Cheapest yellow(like a yukon gold) potato in the store. Best potato chip I have ever had and I'm a Lay's original lover. I don't know or care how long they stay good cause these will be eaten before they resemble stale...like some of the Lays I buy...not a big chip boy. My kids are gonna love this! A light sprinkle of Tony C's cajun spice is what I used. Thank You Andong the A-Bomb of flavor!

[@DJKLProductions]

Sometimes I make potato crisps myself and I can only confirm it is worth it! Since, I am a huge fan of paprika flavoured crisps, I season mine with smoked sweet or smoked spicy paprika powder from Spain, and salt. This is so fantasic! Beside that, I really love your videos because you do not just cook, no, you give us so much background information which makes it so much better! When you try to invent something new or to enhance/evolve existing dishes, it is also very cool. Perhaps you should try to make crisps from rice. There are these rice crisps by Pringles, but the contain potato flour as well. Maybe it is possible to produce them without any trace of potato. I am already looking forward to your next videos! Thanks for the infotainment!

[@miah5543]

Can confirm, I picked up smoked paprika powder in the UK and putting it on any kind of potato has been life changing

[@Ratsnacker]

I also make paprika. I have several pre-mixed with salt for this very purpose!

[@kretieg2943]

In the UK, you name the potato snacks based on the end result. In America, they are named for the cutting process used to make them. The head of a potato chipper looks much like the head of wood chipper. You have a rotating head with embedded blades preset to the desired depth. You feed the potatoes/wood to it as it spins. The result is wood chips or potato chips or anything else you choose to chip. The cut potatoes remain chips both before and after cooking.

[@aimeehodgin6359]

Yasssss!!! My Family is soooo interested in Sour Cream & Onion, & BBQ!! I am doing this is 2 weeks when all of my kids are out of virtual/going into school & I literally cannot wait! Thank You Andong!!! Your videos are amazing! I am such a Foody & I make really good foods! Have an awesome day!

Watched a few of your videos, Andong, and really have been enjoying your presentational format and historical research--combined with both factual and fictional stories. Have just subscribed. Cheers! Darryl

[@BFKAnthony817]

I always use this recipe now. Best method yet, although I get mine a bit warm first before I place them in the oil. They turn out so delicious! I flavor them with a light coating of Goya Adobo all purpose seasoning and they are the best tasting potato chips I have ever eaten! I get them about as brown as his, but I free hand slice them and they turn out amazing! The trick is to have a steady hand, eye and steak knife to cut so it slices easier that way you can't mess up like with thin sharp knife.

[@benjaminharopolous1416]

I also free hand sliced mine, the skill develops surprisingly quick, and even the thick ones make good chips. Honestly I feel like the problem lies in making them too THIN. Lol. I got a few that were just barely not done, and they might have been the best of the bunch

[@BFKAnthony817]

@@benjaminharopolous1416 Yeah, in the past 6 months since I started cooking them I must have made it at least a dozen times, so on average 2 times per month with about 2-3 russet potatoes depending on how large they are, but some months made more and less. And yeah the freehand method takes a tiny bit of practice but you get better with it very quickly and you learn as you go. What did you season yours with? I still make all mine with Adobo and it really tastes so great. And yes, you are right about the thicker ones, they are kind of chewy but when you get them evenly sliced and dehydrated throughout they can be super crunchy. Problems arise when it is not an even slice and part cooks at different rates.

[@benjaminharopolous1416]

I use jersey devil Chipotle salt. Its smoked salt and smoked dried pepper, and then I add a little bit of flakey salt. It has just that small punch of heat with the smokey and salty flavor, and you're totally right, it is having different thicknesses than thinner or thicker ones. I'll have to try adobo too, I've never had it

[@R41D]

Canada has a flavour... it is King of Kings IMO... its called "all dressed" Good luck recreating it because it is magical...

[@ttomkins4867]

It is my go to choice, and I have difficulty not finishing a bag off -_- Its basically a blend of BBQ, Ketchup, Sour Cream and Onion

[@DaytonaBleach]

I thought ketchup chips were unique to Canada but all dressed as well?
