Chef's Notes
Listen to the master! Corn tortillas need just the right amount of moisture to puff up into crispy perfection. Do not crowd the pan, or you will regret it.
Pro Tip
Always maintain that 375 degrees F temperature! If the oil drops too low, your chips will turn into a soggy oil sponge instead of a magnificent crunchy masterpiece.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping wet tortillas straight from the fridge into the hot oil without drying them first, resulting in an apocalyptic hot oil splatter fountain that will banish you from your own kitchen.

The Culinary Science
When the water inside the corn tortilla instantly vaporizes into steam upon hitting the hot oil, it creates tiny air pockets that give the chip its signature shattering crunch.
