2, when frying the potato chips, the heat is medium throughout, so as to keep the oil temperature balanced, and the fried potato chips will not be easy to paste.
If you can’t finish the fried potato chips at a time, you must put them in a plastic bag and seal them so that they won’t get damp and the damp potato chips will not be crispy.
What is the appropriate oil temperature for fried potato chips?
I personally think that the temperature of fried potato chips is 170℃.
Potato chips are thin and don’t need too high temperature. If the oil temperature is too high, it is easy to fry the chips. Too low oil temperature will cause the potato chips to be fried for too long and absorb too much fat, which is unhealthy.
