Preparation
  1. Slice the Russet potatoes thinly using a mandoline for even thickness.
  2. Soak the potato slices in ice water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Cooking

  3. Place the potato slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd.
  4. Cook at 350°F for 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
  5. Season with sea salt and any other desired seasonings immediately after cooking.
Storage
  1. Let the chips cool on a wire rack until they reach room temperature before storing.
  2. Store in an airtight container for long-term storage or a brown paper bag for same-day consumption.
  3. To revive stale chips, reheat in the air fryer for 1-2 minutes at 350°F.

Notes

Ensure that the potato slices are uniform in thickness for even cooking. Always dry thoroughly to avoid soggy chips.
