Really Good Homemade Potato Chips....

These Pampered Chef silicone trays for making potato chips are the greatest...No fat, grease, or added calories...just potatos and salt.  I have made several batches of chips and they are super.  I start with these small, size B Butter Gold potatos and wash them, removing any sprouts or eyes.  I leave on the skins, and thinly slice with a sharp knife.  The next step is very important:  Blot, blot, blot.  Use paper towels to dry off all moisture possible.  Add a little sea salt, load trays, stack in microwave, cook 6 minutes, rotate trays, cook 6 minutes more, watching closely not to scorch.  The only problem is keeping them around long enough to use in lunchboxes for the week.  My supermarket had the 3 pound bag of potatos on sale for .69 cents this week, which will make enough chips for more than a week.



Blot, blot, blot.
