Histori
Origins
The earliest known recipe for something akin to today's potato chips is in William Kitchiner's cookbook, The Cook's Oracle, first published in 1817, which is the bestseller in Britain and the United States. The edition version of 1824 recipe 104 is called "Fried Potatoes in Sliced ​​or Shaved" and reads "peel the large potatoes, slice them about a quarter of an inch thick, or cut them in spinning shavings, as you will peel the lemon; clean, and fry them in pork fat or drip ". The early recipe for potato chips in the United States was found in Mary Randolph Virginia House-Wife (1824), and in N.K.M. Lee's Cook's Own Book (1832), both explicitly quoting Kitchiner.
Saratoga Springs
However, a legend linked the creation of potato chips with Saratoga Springs, New York, a few decades later. At the end of the nineteenth century, the popular version of the story links the dish with George Crum, a half-American, half-Native American chef at Moon's Lake House, who tried to appease displeased customers on August 24, 1853. Customers continued to send potatoes fried back, complaining that they were too thick, too "wet," and/or not salty enough. Frustrated, Crum personally cut some very thin potatoes, fried potato wedges until crunchy, and flavored them with extra salt. For Crum's surprise, customers like them. They were soon called "Saratoga Chips," a name that lasted until at least the middle of the twentieth century. This version of the story was popularized in a 1973 national advertising campaign by St. Paper Company. Regis, who produces packaging for chips, says that Crum's customers are Cornelius Vanderbilt. Crum was famous as a chef by then, and by 1860, he had his own lakeside restaurant, which he called Crum's House.
Mass production
In the 20th century, potato chips spread outside the restaurant tariffs cooked by chefs and began mass production for home consumption. The Potato Chips Company sold in Dayton, Ohio, which was founded in 1910, identifies it as "the oldest potato chips company in the United States". New England-based Tri-Sum Potato Chips, founded in 1908 as Leominster Chips Company, in Leominster, Massachusetts claims to be the first US potato chips manufacturer.
Flavored Chips
In an idea derived from Smiths Potato Crisps Company Ltd., formed in 1920, Frank Smith bundled salt pieces with chips in a fat-resistant paper bag, which was sold around London. Potato chips remain unexplored until innovated by Joe "Spud" Murphy, owner of the Irish chips company Tayto, who in the 1950s developed the technology to add spice during the making. After several trials and errors, Murphy and his employees, Seamus Burke, produced the world's first vintage chips: Cheese & amp; Onion and Salt & amp; Vinegar. Companies around the world are trying to buy the rights to Tayto techniques.
The first flavored chips in the United States, a barbecue flavor, were being produced and sold in 1954. In 1958, Herr was the first company to introduce barbecue flavored potato chips in Pennsylvania.
Bag potato chips
Chips sold in the market are usually sold in cans or chopped from glass storage and shipped by horse and carriage. Early potato chips bags are waxed paper with the tip being ironed or clasped together. At first, potato chips were packed in vats or cans, which left the chips at the bottom of the stale and crushed.
In the 1920s, Laura Scudder, an entrepreneur in Monterey Park, California, began to get the workers to take sheets of waxed paper into bags, stuffed with chips at his factory the next day. This pioneering method is reduced and keeps the chips fresh and crisp longer. This innovation, together with the discovery of cellophane, allows potato chips to become mass market products. Today, the chips are packed in plastic bags, with nitrogen gas blown before sealing to extend shelf life, and provide protection against destruction.
Mature boiler
Long chips are made in a batch process, where potato slices are rinsed with cold water to release starch, fried at low temperatures (300 Â ° F), and continuously scratched to prevent them from sticking together.
Industry advances result in a shift to production by a sustainable process, running the chip through a hot oil barrel and drying it in a conveyor process.
Some small manufacturers continue to use the batch process, especially in Maui. In 1980, inspired by Maui Chip, an entrepreneur started Cape Cod Potato Chips to produce thicker, denser, "Hawaii style" potato chips, which came to be known as a self-cooked (UK) boiler chip (UK) and became premium goods, "gourmet". The kettle chips are thicker and the surface starch is not rinsed, resulting in a chip style called "hard bite".

Nomenclature
Minor consistency exists in the English-speaking world for the name of sliced ​​fries, thick or thin. American and Canadian English use "chips" for the dishes mentioned above - the term is also used (but not universally) in other parts of the world, and sometimes "chips" for the same made from dough.
In England and Ireland, "chips" are potato chips that are eaten at room temperature, while "chips" are similar to French fries (as in "fish and chips") and served hot. In Australia, parts of South Africa, New Zealand, India, West Indies in general, especially in Barbados, these two forms of potato products are known only as "chips", as are larger "home-style" potato chips. In northern New Zealand, they are known as "chippies", but are marketed as "chips" all over the country. In Australia and New Zealand, sometimes differences are made between "hot chips" (french fries) and "chips" or "potato chips". In Bangladesh, they are commonly known as "chips" or "chips," and more rarely as "chips" (pronounced "kirisp") and locally, alu bhaja (because of their similarity with the original potato > bhajji ).
In German-speaking countries (Austria, Germany: "Kartoffelchips ": Switzerland: " Pommes Chips ") and in the former Yugoslav SFR countries, fried thin potato slices are known as a "chip" (pronounced locally very similar to actual English pronunciation), with a clear distinction of french fries. In Brazil, "home-style" potato chips are known as Portuguese batatas portuguesas ("Portuguese potatoes") if their relative sides fine and batatas prussianas ("Prussian potato") if their sides show a pattern like wafer biscuits, while industrial-uniformed potato chips which is similar to America made from potato-based fried potatoes known as "batata chips" ("potato chips"), or just "chip" .
Health issues
Most potato chips contain high levels of sodium, from salt. It has been linked to health problems such as high blood pressure. However, researchers at Queen Mary University of London in 2004 have noted that "a bag of ready chips" contains less salt than a portion of many breakfast cereals, including "any brand of cornflakes sold in Britain."
Some potato chips companies have responded to long-standing concerns by investing in research and development to modify existing recipes and create health conscious products. The PepsiCo study showed that about 80% of salt on the chips was not felt by the tongue before it was swallowed. Frito-Lay spent $ 414 million in 2009 for product development, including the development of salt crystals that will reduce Lay Lay Potato Chips without affecting spices.
No salt chips available, e.g. Salt 'n' Shake is an old British brand, whose chips are not flavored, but instead inserts a small salt sachet in a bag for spice to taste. Many other popular brands in the United States, such as Frito-Lay, also offer such products.

It makes uniform chips in size and shape, allowing it to be stacked and packaged in rigid cardboard or plastic tubes. Pringles are officially branded as potato chips, but they are rarely mentioned as such by Americans. In contrast, Pringles can be called the potato chips in England, to distinguish them from traditional "chips". Munchos, another brand that uses the term potato chips, has an air bag inside its chip that gives it a curved shape, even though the chip itself resembles regular pouch chips.
An additional variant of potato chips is in the form of a "potato stick", also called a shoestring.

Potato sticks are usually packed in rigid containers, although some manufacturers use flexible pockets, similar to potato chips. Potato sticks were originally packed in closed steel cans.
