Toremaru Ibaraki Sweet Potato Chips

These chips are made by deep-frying sweet potatoes from Ibaraki Prefecture using a traditional method to achieve a crispy texture. They use a technique called "kamaage" (pot-frying). In a large, round cauldron, the potatoes are rotated as if being stirred from the bottom, frying while being exposed to air. This process is said to prevent burning and result in a light, crispy texture. The thinly sliced sweet potatoes are simply seasoned with sugar and salt, which enhances the natural, gentle sweetness of the potato. With a single bite, you'll hear a pleasant crunch, and the combination of sweetness and moderate saltiness will keep you coming back for more. Since they are light and not bulky, they make an easy and perfect souvenir from Ibaraki.
