A process for preparing potato chips, shoestring potatoes and other tuber chips in which no additional fat content is added to the potato and none of the natural foodstuffs are removed. The process comprises the steps of slicing a potato or other tuber to produce a plurality of slices or strips of the desired configuration, heating the slices or strips to a temperature and for a period of time sufficient to remove from about fifty to eighty percent of the moisture therefrom, and microwave heatin...

A process for preparing potato chips and shoestring potatoes in which no additional fat content is added to the potato and none of the natural foodstuffs are removed. The process comprises the steps of slicing a potato to produce a plurality of potato slices or strips of the desired configuration and microwave heating the slices or strips for a period of about six to nine minutes to produce a product having substantially the same flavor, color, crispness and slightly greasy appearance as deep-fr...

A method and a low-cost, robust and simple system for remote sensing and analyzing spectral properties of targets as a means to detect and identify them is introduced. The system can be highly portable but is usable in fixed locations or combination thereof. An aspect of the method and system includes the capability to distribute, modulate, aperture and spectrally analyze radiation emitted or absorbed by a volumetric target chemical species (solid, liquid or gas) or a target surface. Radiation i...
