💡 Pro-Tips for Maximum Crunch:
The Starch Trick: Soak your potato slices in cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch. This is the secret to achieving extra crispy edges.
Dry Thoroughly: Moisture prevents crisping. Ensure you pat the potato slices completely dry with a towel before adding the oil.
Air Circulation: For an all-over crunch without needing to flip them, place a wire rack on top of your baking sheet.
