Wash the Russet potatoes thoroughly and peel them if desired (peeling is optional).
Using a mandoline slicer, thinly slice the potatoes to about 1/8 inch thickness. Aim for consistent slices to ensure even dehydration.
Place the potato slices in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for 10 minutes. This will remove excess starch and help make the chips crispier.
Drain the potato slices and rinse them under cold water. Pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, ensuring all slices are evenly coated.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on your dehydrator trays. Make sure the slices do not overlap to ensure even drying.
Set your dehydrator to 135Β°F (57Β°C) and dehydrate the potato slices for 6 hours, or until they are completely dry and crispy.
While the potatoes are dehydrating, prepare the seasoning mix by combining sour cream powder, onion powder, garlic powder, dried parsley, and salt in a small bowl.
Once the potato slices are fully dehydrated and crispy, transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over the chips while they are still warm. Toss gently to ensure all chips are coated in the seasoning.
Allow the chips to cool completely before storing in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness.
Serve as a delicious and guilt-free snack!
