P.E.I.

MEGAN POWELL “I prefer semi-sweet chocolate to coat my chips and I finish them with a pinch of flaky salt for a savoury edge. I encourage you to experiment, using different chocolates and toppings.”

Chocolate-Covered Potato Chips (p. 100) I lived in P.E.I. for two years while attending The Culinary Institute of Canada in Charlottetown. My partner (now husband) and I would always stop for a Cow’s (cows.ca) ice-cream cone on our exploration trips. Their Chip-Chip Hurray flavour—sea-salted ice cream, chocolate-covered potato chips and toffee swirl—was my absolute favourite. While they sadly no longer offer it, they still sell their milk chocolate–covered ripple potato chips both in the shops and online. My time in P.E.I. spawned a love affair with this salty-sweet snack, a genius idea that I now replicate at home.
