Partner content: Make chips for any occasion

Whether you call them fries, chips, French fries, wedges or slap chips, we can all agree that chips are the one meal staple that works with just about everything. It’s the perfect mealtime accompaniment that perfectly rounds off or accentuates any meal. You can even make delectable chips from sweet potatoes!

There really is a chip for every occasion.

Chips are the perfect snack for in-between meals and game nights with friends, the ideal partner for steaks or chicken, or as a loving comfort food curled up in front of the TV under the blanket! It can be dressed to kill with the fanciest sauces to pair with the finest gourmet cuisine, or you can enjoy them as is with just a dollop of good old tomato sauce.

Did you know that not every potato or sweet potato is suited to turn into a chip? There are so many potato and sweet potato variants, it’s impossible to know which one will deliver that perfectly golden and crispy on the outside, yet fluffy on the inside, chip.
