A new product released today, "Potenon," a collaboration product between Koike-ya and Nissin Foods. Non-fly "105kcal" ...? I immediately tried eating a new product that I was interested in.


■ The point is "raw potatoes"

What is new about this product in the first place? You've heard of "non-fried" snacks before.

The point is "raw potatoes". When making non-fried potato chips, using raw potatoes had technical problems such as losing the flavor of the potatoes and causing charring. For this reason, conventional non-fried products have been manufactured by hardening dried potato powdered potatoes into a potato chips style.

This time, Koike-ya collaborated with Nissin Foods, which has the technology of non-fried noodles, and developed the patent-pending technology "raw potato Kongari manufacturing method". It seems that non-fried potato chips that "make use of the flavor of raw potatoes" have been completed.


■ Enjoy the flavor of potatoes!

"Potenon" is characterized by its elongated shape and jagged cut. Since you can eat even a bite, it is difficult for pieces to scatter when you chew.

Its texture is crispy and crunchy rather than the crispness of ordinary potato chips. With a firm chewy texture, the more you chew, the more you can enjoy the flavor of potatoes.


There are two flavors, "rich consomme" and "tomato salad flavor".

The classic consomme flavor "Rich Consomme" is characterized by the strong sweetness of vegetables. You can enjoy a strong but gentle taste.


On the other hand, "Tomato Salad Flavor" is a dish that is accented with the scent of basil in addition to the acidity and sweetness of tomatoes. It is recommended for tomato lovers because you can feel the taste of tomatoes every time you chew.


In addition, because it is non-fried, it has a low oil content and is not sticky to the hands. It seems to be good for "while snacking" such as between desk work.

Pre-sale today at convenience stores in Kanto, Koshinetsu, and Shizuoka. It will be released in the area east of Shizuoka on September 2nd and in the area west of Chukyo on October 7th. If you see it, give it a try!
