Satisfy that chip craving with a slightly healthier option - lotus root chips! Not only are renkon (lotus root) chips a bit healthier than conventional potato chips, they also contain important nutrients such as dietary fiber.
An added plus is that these renkon chips are lemon flavored, so they pack a sour and salty crunch! The Setouchi area of Japan has a reputation for producing delicious citrus, so if you are a lemon flavor lover then these are for you.
Besides the fiber, renkon is rich in vitamin C, potassium, and a polyphenol called tannin. Its distinctive crunchy texture is also worth trying.
Renkon chips are also ideal for a treat to eat whilst drinking alcohol; pair these chips with a cold glass of beer!
