NON-FRIED POTATO CHIPS AND METHOD FOR PRODUCTION THEREOF Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A23L19/12 A23B7/03 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to food industry, specifically to a method for production of non-fried potato chips. Potato slices are subjected to thermal treatment with superheated steam at temperature of 120 °C or higher, but not higher than 300 °C, during a period from 10 seconds to 2 minutes. Oil is applied on potato slices. Slices are treated with an air stream at temperature 150 °C or higher, but not more than 250 °C, and flow rate of 40 m/s or higher. Potato slices are subjected to final drying with hot air at temperature of 80 °C or higher, but not higher than 100 °C, to reduce moisture content in potato slices to approximately 3 % or less. Invention relates to non-fried potato chips that have oil content of 15 wt% or less. Potato chips are not swollen, have low content of oil and level of acrylamide formation, but taste and crispy texture, comparable with potato chips produced by frying in oil.

EFFECT: method enables to avoid formation of amyloid film on chips, obtaining chips uniformly dried on depth, avoiding burning of potato chips.
