Guest guest Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 i made some screaming crunchy zuccini chips last week in excalibur. problem is, too salty. we sliced them by hand, in rounds, and then i marinated them in braggs with juice of one orange. I guess I should have added water to them. DF loves them, but I think they are WAY too salty...

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Yeah, I made the same in my old dehydrator and they came out waaay too salty and spicy. I had to toss 'em. And I had to toss my raw potato chips. Yuck. BUT...I made sweet potato chips the same way with olive oil and Spike. Very good. I just need to find a thinner slicer because the thinner ones are crunchy and dee-lish! I think not using too much oil is good too, a little goes a long way when making chips. Diana of Dewberry Hill still wondering about 'dem tater chips?

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 can't we just use sweet potatoes and no oil? ?? also, i just got the NICEST LOOKING DAIKON. can i make dehydrated chips from it? seems to be that just to slice it with 4mm slice blade on the food destroyer would make some nice NON dehydrated chips. but let's face it, i'm seeking " crunch!

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 I like the oil and the Spike seasoning sticks to it on the sweet potato chips. Daikon, why not? Here's my question..when dehydrating the sweet potato chips the only way to get them crunchy is to slice them really thin. Even at the lower temps suggested to dehydrate...seems that something may be lost int the fact that they get so crunchy? Also no one ever said anything about potato chips...but I think sweet potatoes are more nutritious anyway. Changing old patterns:-) D of DH can't we just use sweet potatoes and no oil? ?? also, i just got the NICEST LOOKING DAIKON. can i make dehydrated chips from it? seems to be that just to slice it with 4mm slice blade on the food destroyer would make some nice NON dehydrated chips. but let's face it, i'm seeking " crunch!

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 i like yams/sweet potatoes, sliced and raw. DF thinks they are too starchy. I love a good orange sw potato chip with some guacamole. YUM! also, the sunchoke makes a splendid chip, but i've never tried to dehydrate. Also, we used those fuji apples, and made chips and served them with guac. that was awesome. gotta love that cuisinart slicing blade! one $2.99 cent bag of sunchokes make a BAG full of chips. I will try the SW pot and let you know how it goes! oh, we also did some onions. both marinated and not, in the dehydrator. i favor the marinated ones.
