How to kettle cook potato chips
Clean and peel as many potatoes as you need based on the amount of chips you want to make.
If you want healthier chips leave the skin on and clean well.
An average-sized potato yields about 10 to 15 chips, although amounts vary based on the size of the potato and how thinly you slice it.
Idaho potatoes are recommended for chips, but you can use any variety you have on hand. Slice potatoes as thinly as desired, placing slices in a large bowl of water to remove excess starch and prevent browning.
