Homemade Potato Chips

These are my downfall—as are french fries, sweet potato fries, or anything else that involves spuds and a deep-fat fryer.

I’m a believer in the golden rule of party giving: Feed your guests as you would like to be fed yourself. No wonder my cocktail parties invariably include potato chips. I often serve them with Chipotle Ketchup (page 254), but sometimes I crave them bare with just a light shower of plain or fancy salt and a large glass of good red wine.
