Let’s be honest: Potato chips are boring. Every time I wander the chip aisle of the grocery store, there is some supposedly new twist on the potato chip. Classic. Jalapeno. Terra Blue. Vinegar and salt. Vidalia onion. Ranch. Whatever. Most are a disappointment.<\/span>

Why couldn’t the potato chip be beautiful? A work of art? An architectural design element?<\/span>

Behold: The Edible Glass Potato Chip<\/span>

This chip is stunning. It’s see-through like no other food. It has the distinct crunch and flavor of a potato chip, but in an unexpected space-age form.<\/span>

This is molecular gastronomy brought home. It involves potato stock, potato starch, and a slow-dried gel. The first couple of steps are a breeze, but I warn you in advance: you must have patience to bring these to fruition. The last few steps require that you dehydrate the gel and then deep fry the chips in oil (like the real ones). But the result is oh-so-worth-it (every calorie, too).<\/span>

The <\/span>original recipe<\/a> was created Hamid Salimian, the chef at Diva at the Met. I\u00a0improved the recipe by using a squeeze bottle to create more uniform\u00a0potato\u00a0chips. I also experimented with adding herbs like rosemary to the recipe which is a great way to bring your own twist to the recipe.<\/span>

Enjoy!<\/span>
