Instructions
For the Blue Cheese Dip
Using a medium bowl, add sour cream, mayonnaise, milk, lemon juice, chives, dried parsley and garlic salt; stir until well combined.
Add crumbled blue cheese; stir until well combined.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight).
For the Homemade Potato Chips
Using a mandolin, slice potatoes into 1/8” thick slices; place potatoes in a large bowl.
Cover potatoes with cold water and stir gently; drain water. Rinse potatoes until water runs clear.
Place potatoes in a large bowl. Add vinegar and enough cold water to cover. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
Using a heavy-bottomed pot or a deep fryer, add 2-3” of oil. Heat over medium heat until temperature reaches 300°F. (If using a pot, a candy thermometer is the best way to monitor the temperature of the oil.)
Drain potatoes and transfer to a paper-towel lined baking tray. Pat potatoes dry with additional paper towels.
Working in batches, fry potatoes for 6-8 minutes, flipping occasionally, or until crispy. (Note: Avoid the temptation of putting too many potatoes in the pot at a time. Overcrowding the pot will make the chips take longer to fry, and they will taste greasier.)
Using a slotted spoon, transfer chips to a paper-towel lined baking tray. Sprinkle the batch of chips with a portion of the salt. Repeat process, allowing oil temperature to return to 300°F after each batch.
