Hi everyone welcome back to my kitchen today
We're gonna show you how to make pasta chips I tried finding
Pasta chips because I needed them for a recipe that I wanted to share with you
But now I can't find them anywhere, so I had to make my own, so these are really easy
They're really delicious and dare. I say they're addictive
We're gonna talk about how to make these and we're gonna talk about how else you can season them up
But let's go see how these all come together
Today I'm gonna show you how to make pasta chips because I have a video coming up that I need them for now you may
Have seen
bags of pasta chips in the grocery store
Over the last couple of years we used to buy them and they were really tasty and then all of a sudden
Can't be fine finding him anywhere. I looked high and low because I was gonna use them for that recipe
But since I can't find them, and I wasn't paying $60 for a case of them on Amazon even though
I love you guys a lot. I wasn't doing that. I thought you could totally make your own pasta chips
What is that pastas just flour water salt sometimes eggs, but I thought it'd be easy to do this with egg roll wrappers
So I got two packages of egg roll wrappers. There's about 20 sheets in each and we're gonna cut these up into
Rectangles, and I'll show you how I do that, and then we're gonna pop them in the deep fryer
I have my turkey fryer all heated up and ready to go and
Then when they come out we're gonna drain them just a little bit
But while they're still hot we're gonna sprinkle them with some pizza seasoning and garlic powder and some freshly grated Parmesan cheese
They're perfectly delicious. Just like that ready to eat, and I guarantee you you won't be able to eat just one because they're amazing and
Then we're gonna use them in some fantastic recipe that I can't wait to share with you, but I'm gonna keep that a secret
Because I really want you to anticipate what's coming okay?
So this could not be easier first you want to get your egg roll wrappers kind of Square month
This is the kind I bought I'm not promoting this brand. I'm just showing you. This is the only kind at my grocery store I
Got mine at Walmart
You can pictures at the Asian market or however you want to do it so I cut mine in half down the middle
approximately
Okay, then I'm gonna cut this
In
Four
And then I'm going to cut each one of these
Like this so you're kind of making a strip
And that's how hard that is so we'll get the rest of these ready
And we will meet you out at the fryer now
I have my basket down in my fryer, and this is a masterbuilt electric turkey fryer
It's an extra-large model. We have three gallons of peanut oil fresh that we
actually put into today and
You're gonna want to just heat that to 375 which is the standard temperature for this fryer?
You can put them in the basket and lower it in there
But I'm gonna toss them in and then we're going to fresh fish them out
carefully with a spider
and then I want you to go ahead and just kind of
Stir this around
Agitate it so that these
become
They don't stick together. They will separate. I promise
And they'll go pretty quick, so you want to have your tray I have a baking sheet lined
with paper towel ready to go off to the side and
You can decide how dark you want these?
But I'm gonna go ahead and say these are ready to come out as soon as they float
You can shallow fry these and in a skillet these are gorgeous
then what you're gonna want to do is we're gonna go ahead and
Go inside, and I'll show you what we're gonna do
While they're hot you still want to sprinkle these with the seasoning and the Parmesan cheese
So we're gonna go do that and I'll meet you back inside all right
I transferred my hot chips to a bowl because it's just easier to get these all seasoned up in here that way
So in with our garlic and pizza seasoning and in with some Parmesan cheese give it a little bit of a toss
You can add some salt if you want to but the parmesan is pretty salty already and that's how you make pasta chips
I'm gonna go finish frying the rest of mine up and then I'll be back and we'll
Give these a taste and we'll talk a little bit more about them
There you have it our homemade pasta chips fresh out of the fryer all seasoned up and delicious
And I know that you're gonna love them these things are too easy to eat
I'll be using these in an upcoming video
because I need them for the base for what we're doing and I'm really excited to share it with you because it's inspired by a
Restaurant chain dish and I'm really really
Loving it and I can't wait to share it with you, so
You want to pop one of these in your mouth?
Yeah, I think you do
They're light, they're
Crispy they're not greasy because we fried them at the right temperature
They're very very Airy, but they're not like they won't shatter when you pick them up
They have some sturdiness to them and they're just plain delicious
I promise you these were super easy to make as I said you can make these on the stove just
Fry them in some oil these literally take like 20
Seconds in the hot oil and that is all they're super easy to make they're super fast
they make hardly any mess at all and
When you buy the wonton wrappers or the you egg egg roll wrappers all your work is pretty much done for you know pasta making
Involved you might even be able to get away with you could make your own pasta
Absolutely if you wanted to and if you wanted to I have not tried this
But you might even be able to use the fresh pasta sheets that you can get in the refrigerator section of the grocery store
You can go ahead and give that a try if you want to but honestly
I don't think there's gonna be much difference. These are awesome as I was trying these plain
They reminded me very much of a treat from my very early childhood my um
Paternal grandmother was a Hungarian immigrant, and she used to make these bowtie cookies with this dough that would take all day to make
Polish people have this similar cookie as well
I'm sure everyone who lives in Eastern Europe probably does
They're just this super super thinly rolled out dough you cut it into diamonds
You kind of slit in the middle
And then you kind of knot it into itself and you fry them in
Superhot oil then when they come out of a hot oil you dip them in
You roll them in powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar?
And I can't remember the Hungarian name for the cookies all I remember is bowtie cookies
But when I tasted these plain before they were seasoned up. They reminded me very much of my mum's bowtie cookies so
what I did was I took some and I didn't season them up with the pizza seasoning, but I
Rolled some in powdered sugar and some in cinnamon sugar and these these remind me so much of my mama
Those are just those little things that in your life. You go back to when you taste them, and it's
Oh, it's like that person is there with you so this is a little piece of my heart
So what you see here?
Was one entire package of egg roll wrappers. I did not fry the other package because this is more than we can probably eat
For the dish I'm making and these I'm sure will disappear in no time if you know what I mean
So I hope this inspires you to make some pasta chips for yourself. These are great for gameday snacks or anytime snacks
They're super fast to put together and everybody's gonna love them
