Notes
- Why Use Greaseproof Paper Instead of Parchment?
Greaseproof paper prevents oil absorption, making the chips crispier compared to parchment paper. - Best Parmesan to Use:
- Freshly grated parmesan → crispiest texture.
- Pre-grated parmesan → works, but may be less crispy due to anti-caking agents.
- Long-life parmesan (powdered canister type) → not recommended—it doesn’t crisp well.
- Storage:
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- If they soften, re-crisp in the oven for 2 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
- Do not refrigerate—moisture will make them chewy.
- Serving Suggestions:
- Serve with Ranch Dip with Cottage Cheese or Cucumber Cottage Cheese Keto Dip.
- Sprinkle over zucchini noodles, keto Alfredo, or casseroles for a crunchy topping.
