Steps:

• Jazz up your favorite store-bought potato chips: Spread the chips on a baking sheet and warm in a 350 degrees F oven until they look oily. Sprinkle with chili powder, paprika, ground mustard, salt and a tiny pinch of cayenne pepper. Let cool before serving.

Steps:

• In a heavy Dutch oven, heat 3 to 4 inches of oil to 320 degrees F (use a thermometer to keep the temp right!).
• Trim the tops off the sweet potatoes and finely slice into rounds using a mandoline or knife. Pat them dry with kitchen paper.
• Mix together the garlic salt, black pepper, paprika, chipotle, cayenne and kosher salt in a small bowl and set aside.
• Lower a batch of potatoes into the oil with a spatula. Cook, stirring frequently, until crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon or spider to a baking sheet lined with parchment. Sprinkle on some of the spice mix. Cook the remaining batch.

Steps:

• Place the chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat until the chips are warm to the touch, yet still very crunchy, about 1 minute.
• Meanwhile, toast the sriracha seasoning in a small dry skillet over low heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat, mix in the sugars, then add to the hot chips and toss until evenly and generously coated. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix 1 1/2 tablespoons paprika and 1/2 teaspoon each cayenne and black pepper in a bowl. Spread 12 cups potato and/or vegetable chips on 2 baking sheets. Bake in a 350 degrees F oven until oily-looking, about 5 minutes. Toss with the spices and bake 2 more minutes. Let cool.

Steps:

• Soak potatoes in 2-qt. of ice water for 1 hour; drain and pat dry., In an electric skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry potatoes, seven or eight slices at a time, 1-2 minutes or until golden brown on both sides, turning once. Drain on paper towels; sprinkle with salt.

Steps:

• In a 6-qt. slow cooker, combine the first 10 ingredients. In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat 6-8 minutes or until no longer pink, breaking it into crumbles; drain. Add to slow cooker., Cook, covered, on low to allow flavors to blend, 4-5 hours. Add cheese and onion dip in the last 30 minutes of cooking. Stir before serving.

Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally; add a little water if necessary.

Steps:

• Special equipment: deep-fry thermometer, mandoline slicer
• Pour oil to a depth of 4 inches in a heavy-bottomed pot and heat over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
• Mix the salt, sugar, chili powder and cayenne in a small bowl and set aside. Very thinly slice the sweet potatoes on a mandoline slicer and carefully drop into the hot oil in batches, being careful to not overcrowd the pan. Deep-fry until golden around edges, 45 seconds to 1 minute, and transfer to a lined baking sheet. Sprinkle the chips with seasoning while they are still hot and let cool to crisp. Remove the chips from the baking sheet to a serving bowl and eat immediately while still crunchy!

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes under water until totally clean. Use a mandolin or Japanese slicer to slice the potatoes as thinly as possible. As you slice them, submerge them in cold water and set aside. Mix together the garlic salt, paprika, black pepper, cayenne and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
• In 2 heavy Dutch ovens, heat some vegetable oil to 375 degrees F (use a thermometer to keep the temp right!). Lay the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with paper towels, and blot them with more paper towels to dry completely.
• Lower batches of potatoes into the oil using a spatula. They will fry very quickly, about 1 1/2 minutes; remove with a spatula when they're nice and golden and crisp. Immediately sprinkle on the spice mix. Repeat with the rest of the potatoes!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F Spray a baking sheet with a light coat of oil. Cut the sweet potato into 1/4-inch-thick slices with a sharp knife or mandolin. Place the slices on the baking sheet, making sure their edges don't touch. Spray the slices with a thin layer of oil, then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon chili powder and salt to taste. Bake 8 to 10 minutes; or until they begin to brown. Carefully turn the slices; spray again oil, then sprinkle the other teaspoon chili powder and salt to taste; bake another 5 minutes or so. The chips should be crispy and browned. Place the chips in a paper towel-lined basket or bowl and serve immediately. These chips taste best when still warm.
