ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing potato chips and shoestring potatoes in which no additional fat content is added to the potato and none of the natural foodstuffs are removed. The process comprises the steps of slicing a potato to produce a plurality of potato slices or strips of the desired configuration and microwave heating the slices or strips for a period of about six to nine minutes to produce a product having substantially the same flavor, color, crispness and slightly greasy appearance as deep-fried potato chips or shoestring potatoes. The potato slices or strips can be steamed or baked prior to microwave heating to reduce the microwave heating time and can be subjected to a second microwave heating step to reduce the moisture content therein for a longer shelf life.
