Salz Chips - Crusti Croc

The potatoes used for Crusti Croc's Salz Chips originate from Germany. The "kartoffeln made-in-Germany" are very well peeled before being cut thin and flat. Baked in high-oleic sunflower oil (34%), the chips are finally seasoned with table salt: a bit too much for many of our critics. The final product results in chips that have a very light yellow colour, almost white.

The first feeling when opening the bag of Crusti Croc chips is a good aroma: some consider it a wood or forest aroma, while others smell an earth/soil scent. In any case a smell that brings our minds back to nature, to the roots.

北海道 ようていポテトチップス うすしお味 - Fukagawa Yushi Kabushikigaisha

"Hokkaido Mt Youtei Potato Chips soft salt" are named after the Youtei volcano. The mascot of Kutchan city, a skiing potato, presents these chips in a greenish bag with a background photo of the volcano. Kutchan is known for its proximity to the world famous snow region of Niseko and for its production of quality potatoes, hence its mascot.

The potatoes chosen for this delicacy are of the Danshaku type. The chips are flat cut, partly unpeeled and, once baked in a mix of palm and rice oils, get a pale yellow colour. The crunch is thud, short and slightly muffled, probably due to the reduced quantity of oil used in the baking. This provides an intense potato flavour maybe at the expense of a mouth dry feeling.

On the bag rear, there's plenty of information about the mountain region with national parks, museums, trekking routes, etc... an interesting use of a potato chips bag as a leaflet to promote touristic spots in the Hokkaido area.
