ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a process for toasting agricultural produce slices and more particularly potato slices and an apparatus for achieving this result. The resulting product is free of oils and fats, which is advantageous for people who are conscious of their diet. Briefly stated, the agricultural produce, nominally a potato, is washed, peeled if desired, sliced, and seasoning applied to the sliced produce and the sliced seasoned pieces are allowed to stand and absorb the seasoning. The seasoned slices are then toasted in a process where cooking heat is applied by a device with opposed cooking surfaces. The cooking surfaces have a relieved surface so that approximately one half of said surface comes into contact with the produce slices being cooked. Various cooking surface designs are effective such as a waffle pattern, strips, or parallel serpentine surfaces. The toasting action occurs when the opposed heated cooking surfaces compress the agricultural produce slices driving the moisture in the slices to the voids in the cooking surface where the moisture is driven off. The result is a crisp, fat and oil free chip, nominally a potato chip.
