How to breathe new life into old chips and make them crispy

Imagine for a moment the joy of opening a brand new bag of chips: your fingers grip the metalized plastic pull it apart a gentle puff of air comes through and then you reach in and grab that first crunchy bite. And oh is it crunchy! Now imagine not finishing the bag in one go (we know that’s hard to imagine). You rolled the top down secured it with a clip and saved it for a rainy day of Bridgerton binging. But on that fateful rainy day you open the bag to find the dreaded soggy chip—softened old completely unwanted.

Is that it? Is there nothing to do? Of course not! I have discovered an incredibly easy way to breathe new life into chips making them as good as new. Follow along and get ready for a life of endless crunch.

Before we get into how to make your chips crispy again it helps to understand what makes food crispy in the first place. I admit tracking the moisture content of food isn’t as exciting as watching Bridgerton. But trust me once you start looking at the numbers they’ll make a lot of sense (just like Kate and Anthony sigh!).
