This mix has been 18 months in the making to get the carbs on these lower, lower low using food science techniques. The reason why we are so over the moon, is that the #1 food that people miss dreadfully when going low carb is hot chips! So it's a fantastic problem to have solved :)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat we love: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• They taste like potato because the main ingredients are potato and a touch of natural sea salt, which always makes any hot potato chip taste even better.\u003cbr\u003e• You can shape the dough this mix makes however you like - skinny fries, regular hot chips, potato tots, hash browns. Simply adjust your cooking times and light oil spray before or during baking to get them golden brown. \u003cbr\u003e• 100g mix makes 350g of finished chips, enough to actually share with other people, if you're kind :) \u003cbr\u003e• Chips, once press-cut, can also be frozen giving you fast food, whenever you like later.  \u003cbr\u003e• Fast food hot chips are the single #1 food that everyone misses when reducing their carbs and with this mix, that desire is truly sorted. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLower carbs aren't the only gain - the higher fibre fast food is. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFibre is much slower energy releasing, so you benefit from lower carbs plus you gain from a slow releasing food source for a healthier stomach biome, and your blood sugars can also relax.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn simplified terms we started with a traditionally high starchy carb product (potato) then followed food science heating and cooling to convert the starchy carbs into non-digestible prebiotic dietary fibres. Scientifically speaking there's a whole lot of technical food science principles and processes involved like gelatinisation, retrogradation and syneresis. Unlike me though, there's no need to keep you up late at night figuring it out. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe upshot is all the ingredients are from natural sources, and the heating and cooling is also done naturally. We've simply cracked the science to produce this holy grail in Keto Food substitutes: Low carb, high fibre Hot Potato Chips aka Fries. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients: \u003c\/strong\u003ePotato with Modified Starch, Sea Salt \u003cbr\u003eMade in New Zealand from local and imported ingredients.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMacros per 100g \u003c\/strong\u003ewhen made\u003cstrong\u003e: \u003c\/strong\u003eEnergy 247kJ, Protein 2.3g, Fat 0.3g, Saturated 0.1g, Carbs 4.5g, Sugars 0.2g Dietary Fibre 15g, Sodium 15mg \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to make\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1• \u003c\/strong\u003eHeat 250ml water to 80°C (a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ketostore.nz\/products\/digital-thermometer\" title=\"Link to Digital Thermometer from Keto Store NZ\"\u003edigital thermometer\u003c\/a\u003e is handy for this)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2• \u003c\/strong\u003eShake the 100g bag of dry mix before adding to the hot water, then stir\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3• \u003c\/strong\u003eCover and rest for 5 minutes\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4• \u003c\/strong\u003eWhile warm, slightly compress the mixture to desired chip thickness\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e6• \u003c\/strong\u003ePress-cut with a knife (try not to slice or drag the knife) to get your desired size of chip.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e7• \u003c\/strong\u003eRefrigerate the cut fries in a single layer for 30 minutes to firm up before cooking.\u003cbr\u003eFor frozen fries, store them in a container in the freezer in single layers until ready to cook.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGuidance on cooking methods\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003ePlease note the following times, temperatures and techniques are a guide and will vary depending on how thick or thin you shape your hot chips as well as how your appliances function.

Line a tray with baking paper, spray chips lightly with oil.

Place single fries in 200°C oil with care. Making batches is better than over-crowding which lowers the temperature of the oil. To drain off any excess oil, place a paper towel beneath a rack and place golden cooked chips on top. When cooked fries are placed directly on a paper towel, steam is trapped making the chips go soggy.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of serves \u0026amp; sizes: \u003c\/strong\u003ethis 100g packet makes 350g of hot chips\u003cbr\u003eA standard serve of hot chips is 100g, so you'll get 3.5 serves per packet. \u003cbr\u003eMcDonalds fries: a large serve weighs 150g, medium is 114g and the small portion of fries is 80g\u003cbr\u003eA scoop of chips in a takeaway shop is typically 330g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther products that taste amazing with these Hot Chips: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ketostore.nz\/search?q=tomato+sauce\" title=\"Link to Low Carb Tomato Sauce we've got lots of choices at Keto Store NZ\"\u003eTomato Sauce\u003c\/a\u003e        \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ketostore.nz\/products\/chicken-salt-85g-shaker\" title=\"Link to Chicken Salt 85g Shaker from Keto Store NZ\"\u003eChicken Salt\u003c\/a\u003e       \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ketostore.nz\/search?q=mingle+chippy+salt\" title=\"Link to Mingle Search for Chippy Salt\"\u003eMingle Chippy Salt\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA special shout out \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe'd like to give Emmerson a shout out, as she was instrumental in running so many tests over a prolonged period of time with so many combinations of ingredients and methods.
