How to cook deliciously - Homemade Potato Chips

1. Stage

Using a vegetable peeler, metal cheese slicer or mandoline, cut the potatoes into very thin slices and place them in a large bowl. Cover them with ice water and add the salt. Soak the slices for 30 minutes.

2. Stage

Drain the potatoes, place them on paper towels and pat them dry. In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, celery salt and pepper. Set the seasoning aside. Editor's Tip: Make sure the potatoes are well-dried before you fry them for peak crispiness.

3. Stage

In a cast-iron or other heavy-bottomed skillet, heat 1-1/2 inches of oil to 375°F. Working in batches, fry the potatoes until they're golden brown, about three to four minutes, stirring frequently. Editor's Tip: Don't overcrowd the skillet! Frying the potatoes in batches ensures they'll crisp up evenly.

4. Stage

Remove the chips with a slotted spoon, then drain them on paper towels. Immediately sprinkle the hot chips with the seasoning mixture.
