Fried Sunchoke Chips With Rosemary Salt
- 2 pounds unpeeled sunchokes (also called Jerusalem artichokes),* scrubbed
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary

Mix 1 tablespoon salt and rosemary in small bowl. Using fingertips, blend well, rubbing salt and rosemary together.
- Working in batches, fry sunchoke slices until golden brown, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes. Using skimmer, transfer chips to paper towels to drain. Sprinkle chips with some rosemary salt. DO AHEAD Chips can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
- Mound chips in bowl and serve.
