Chef's Notes
Do not rush the drying phase, or your chips will turn into chewy little sad rags instead of glorious crunch vessels.
Pro Tip
Keep a steady rhythm with your batches so the oil temperature does not wildly fluctuate, ensuring an even, golden hue across all chips.

Dropping wet tortillas straight into boiling oil and turning your kitchen into a violent, sputtering volcano of molten grease.
