Saratoga Chips

We discovered these chips at Montgomery Inn in Cincinnati. My spouse loves them so much that I wanted to try these at home. I made these along side of some slow cooked ribs and they were just fabulous. Thanks for posting!

Updated 10/29/07: I just had to give an update of this recipe. I just tried this recipe using sweet potatoes. I sliced one sweet potato with my mandolin slicer following the instructions in this recipe. I fried the potato slices in two batches. After each batch, I put the potatoes on a plate lined with a paper towel and sprinkled the chips with a cinnamon/sugar mixture. These were AWESOME. I couldn't stop eating them and finished off the whole plate. I think I just found my new favorite snack food. This is a great chip recipe. I like potato chips, but I live alone and can never finish off a big bag of chips. I usually end up throwing away over half a bag. Now whenever I am in the mood for chips, I can just make my own. I cut the recipe in half and still had a lot of chips. I had the chips with an Italian sub and some French onion chip dip. From now on, unless I have friends over, I am only going to use one large potato. I will be making this recipe often. Thanks for the great chip recipe and for helping me save money.

Another childhood memory. I remember making these with my best friend and after taste-testing my GD Carly asked "why do we buy chips when these are so much better?" - out of the mouth of babes! I sliced mine on a #2 because we favor a heavier chip and a darker one too. I did put out some extra salt and BBQ sauce but we all preferred the plain ones. Made for the Aussie Swap and so glad I did.

These were very good. Homemade potato chips. I did not dip in bbq sauce, just ate em fresh from the fryer. Great job Lorie. Thanks for sharing.
