NutriRootz Sweet Potato Chips [Brand of SG]
are a healthier, crunchier alternative to traditional snacks, produced by frying fruits or vegetables at low temperatures (around 90–130°C) under reduced atmospheric pressure.
This method reduces oil absorption by over 80%, retains natural colors and flavors, and minimizes carcinogenic compounds. They offer a lighter texture while preserving more nutrients compared to deep-fried, oily alternatives.
Key Benefits:
Lower Oil Content:
Vacuum frying reduces oil absorption by up to 50–80% compared to conventional frying.
Nutrient Retention:
The lower heat preserves heat-sensitive vitamins (like Vitamin C and A) and natural antioxidants that are often destroyed in high-heat frying.
Natural Appearance:
Because oxidation is inhibited, these chips retain the vibrant natural colour and intense flavour of the original produce.
Safety:
The low temperature prevents the formation of acrylamide, a potential carcinogen that develops in starchy foods at high temperatures.
