More about plantain chips
Ripe vs unripe plantain chips
Ripeness decides the flavor. Unripe green plantains are starchy and barely sweet, so they crisp into a savory chip with a clean, firm snap that suits sea salt. As a plantain ripens its starch converts to sugar, so naturally ripe plantain chips come out golden and noticeably sweet with caramelized edges. The difference is entirely the fruit, not added sugar.
Plantain chips vs potato chips
Plantain slices are denser than potato slices, so the chips are sturdier and break with a heavier snap. That strength is why sea salt plantain chips are a better match for thick dips like guacamole and bean dips, where thinner chips fold or break apart.
How to serve them
Serve sea salt plantain chips with dips or alongside a sandwich. Ripe plantain chips are better on a board next to salty cheese or roasted nuts, or crumbled over a bowl for texture. Spicy plantain chips are best plain with a cold drink. Each pouch is 2.5 oz (71g) and resealable.
Common questions
- Are ripe plantain chips sweetened?
- No. The sweetness comes from the plantain itself. As the fruit ripens its starch converts to natural sugar, which caramelizes when the slices are crisped.
- Which plantain chip is best for dipping?
- Sea Salt Unripe Plantain Chips. They are the sturdiest and the most savory, so they hold up to thick dips without breaking.
- How spicy are the spicy plantain chips?
- The heat is bold but builds gradually across a handful rather than arriving all at once, so the plantain flavor still comes through.
