Homemade potato chips already feel like a treat, but this ginger-scallion version takes things to a whole new level of craveable. Thin-sliced russet potatoes get tossed in garlic-infused oil with fresh grated ginger and white pepper before hitting a hot oven, and the result is shatteringly crisp, deeply savory, and genuinely hard to stop eating. For anyone navigating a yeast-free lifestyle, store-bought chips can be a minefield of hidden additives and fermented flavor enhancers — here, every ingredient is clean and straightforward, so you know exactly what you're getting. The real magic happens at the end, when you toss the hot chips with thinly sliced scallion greens and an optional drizzle of toasted sesame oil, which perfumes the whole bowl with something that smells almost too good. The key to maximum crunch is patience — patting those potato slices bone dry before baking makes all the difference between a chip and a sad, soggy wafer. These are fantastic straight from the oven but hold up beautifully on a wire rack if you need to make them slightly ahead.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes crosswise as thin as possible — about 1/16 inch (1–2 mm). Pat the slices thoroughly dry with paper towels; the drier they are, the crisper the chips.
