Anyone got a fool-proof method for baked chips? Every time I try they burn or if I try to take them out before burning, I’ll leave them on the sheet to keep cooking but so many remain raw
I would think it’s pretty damn hard. I got fool proof baked fries recipe. Applying that to chips, I would try:

1. Using a mandolin. Unless you got chef tier knife skills, you’re not going be able to slice them thin enough consistently

2. Rinse in cold water. Put them in a bowl agitate them. Drain the water. Do this a few times until the water stops being cloudy. You’re trying to get rid of as much starch as possible.

3. Par boil them. Boil them until they just become soft. Probably doesn’t take long if they’re super thin.

4. Drain them in a strainer and leave them for 20 min or so. Until the stop steaming. You want to get as much moisture out as possible.

5. Toss in oil, lay them out single layer on a cookie sheet. Bake at 400. Flipping them over after a 10 min or so.

If you don’t have a mandolin it probably won’t work. But if you want fool proof oven fries, follow that recipe. Except cut fries instead of chips obvious. And it will take 30-40 min in the oven.

Yea, I have a mandolin. No way I could slice them without it.

I may try the cold water rinse and/or parboil, saw that on one recipe I looked at

Anybody here know a good healthy chicken salad recipe? Tired of going out for lunch

Roast a whole marinated bird in the oven and grill some vegetables to go with it.

For chicken - marinate with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, rosemary powder and died thyme
For the salad
chargrill zucchini, and broccolli
oven roast red onions, tomatoes, beets (in a separate foil packet), carrots, Red bell peppers
chopped walnuts
feta cheese
spinach and various salad leaves
Make a quick lemon vinaigrette with lemon juice, honey,olive oil, salt and pepper and minced garlic. Please google the exact measurements

Its gonna look like the below. Roasting a whole bird will last you for days and you cam make sandwiches and wraps with the leftovers.

Beef Gyozas, I'm working on my crimping technique.




I put a little beef stock in the pan to steam them.



crimping is a lot easier if you don't try to hold gyoza/buns in your hand. Try doing it with them sitting on the counter or the table.

it's like your brain imagines that youre folding paper :heh:
