Cooking Instructions

• Wash food. For a better chip or fruit crisp, keep
the skin on, but peeling is optional.

• Slice food by holding slicer handle with one hand
and the guard and food with the other.
IMPORTANT - For better control, cut the food in
half and place the flat side down on the blade.
Carefully use the guard to push the food over
the blade.

• Slice food evenly and thinly with continuous
pressure in back and forth movements.

• The blade is extremely sharp! Hold the slicer firmly
and always keep your fingers behind the guard.

• Calorie Saving Tip - Soak potato slices in a bowl of water for about 3
minutes. This releases much of the potato starch. (1 med potato has
about 30 grams of starch and 10.6 grams = 40 calories).

• Pat potato or fruit slices dry on both sides using a paper towel.

• Season as desired (see Recipes).

• Gently fold individual food slices to load into the patented Chip-Tastic
slots. Your slices should rest on the Chip-Tastic

• Place in microwave and cook for recommended cooking time (see
Cooking Times chart).

• Monitor cooking closely. Cooking times vary depending on your
microwave, its age, thickness of food slices and seasonings. Be careful
not to overcook or under cook your chips or crisps. When they start to
turn golden brown they are done.

• Let cool for 2-3 minutes. Chips and fruit will crisp up as they cool.

• Now enjoy!

for you. Add notes to this chart as you use your Chip-Tastic

cooking closely. Once the slices turn golden brown your chips are done!

Using Ronco Spices (Or Your Own)

Apply spices before or after you cook your chips or crisps. If you apply the
spices before, you may need to increase the recommended cooking times
by 1-2 minutes depending on the amount of seasoning. Have fun! Use the
spice and recipe options included in this book or create some of your own!

*Standard cooking times are based on 1000W microwave using slices made with the Chip-TasticTM food slicer.

Cooking times will vary depending on your microwave, its age, thickness of food slices and seasoning. If
using a microwave oven that does not have a rotating turntable, please rotate 180 degrees every 2 minutes.
