Homemade Potato chips





Tom got me a food slicer for Christmas and he's been playing with it. He's made homemade potato chips twice now. But he made a whole bunch last night, actually he started them and I ended up finishing them. By the time they were done I was so tired and still had to get Jacob sleeping so I quickly put them in sandwich bags. Today they were soggy. I think my mistake was 1. not adding new paper towels to soak up more of the grease and 2. storing them in an airtight container. But last night, they tasted just as good as any store-bought chip! (and safer for us, only some brands are ok for Jacob!)
Here's a website I found talking about the history of potato chips and includes instructions for making your own.
