Ingredients

• 4 large russet potatoes
• 1 cup white vinegar
• 2 tablespoons sea salt
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• Additional sea salt, for seasoning

Directions

1. Slice the potatoes into thin even slices using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife.
2. Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl and cover them with cold water.
3. Add the white vinegar to the bowl and let the potatoes soak for 30 minutes.
4. Preheat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C).
5. Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a paper towel.
6. Working in small batches, carefully add the potatoes to the hot oil and fry them for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
7. Use a slotted spoon to remove the chips from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
8. Sprinkle the hot chips generously with sea salt while they are still oily.
9. Repeat the frying process with the remaining batches of sliced potatoes.
10. Allow the chips to cool completely before serving. They will become even crispier as they cool down.
11. Store any leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness.
