Why Kettle Cooking Makes Roots Potato Chips Extra Crunchy
There’s something special about a truly crunchy potato chip. At Roots, we believe that great flavor starts with quality potatoes and careful preparation. That’s why our potato chips are kettle cooked in small batches to create the satisfying crunch snack lovers enjoy.
From Idaho Farms to the Kettle
Our journey begins with potatoes grown on Roots family-owned farms in Idaho. We carefully select potatoes that are suited for making delicious, crispy chips.
Once harvested, these potatoes make their way into our kettle-cooking process, where they are transformed into the crunchy snack you know and love.
What Makes Kettle Cooked Chips Different?
Kettle cooking is all about taking the time to create the right texture. Instead of rushing through the process, our chips are cooked carefully to develop a golden color and hearty crunch.
The result is a chip with a satisfying texture that pairs perfectly with everything from a simple sea salt seasoning to bold barbecue and jalapeño flavors.
Choose Your Favorite Roots Flavor
Roots offers a variety of kettle cooked potato chips, including:
- Sea Salt – A simple, classic flavor with a satisfying crunch.
- Jalapeño – A bold choice for those who enjoy a flavorful kick.
- Barbecue – Savory, smoky flavor for a delicious snack.
- Purple Potatoes with Sea Salt – Made from naturally purple potatoes for a unique twist.
- Tallow Sea Salt – Regeneratively grown Idaho potatoes cooked in 100% grass-fed beef tallow for a rich, savory experience.
Two Ways We Cook Our Chips
Our commitment to great-tasting chips goes beyond the potatoes. Some Roots varieties are cooked in 100% avocado oil, while our Tallow Sea Salt variety is cooked in 100% grass-fed beef tallow.
This gives you two distinct ways to enjoy Roots kettle cooked potatoes—whether you prefer the classic character of avocado oil or the richer, savory profile of beef tallow.
A Crunch That Starts at the Roots
From potatoes grown on Idaho farms to carefully selected cooking methods and flavorful seasonings, every bag of Roots Kettle Cooked Potato Chips represents our focus on creating a delicious snack.
Good potatoes. Careful cooking. Big crunch. That's the Roots way.
