Title: Preparation of legume chips

Abstract: Legume chips for use as a snack food are prepared by first mixing an acidified legume powder with regular legume powder. Water is added to the mixture to form a paste, which is extruded into thin sheets. Bite-size pieces are cut from the thin sheet and are par-fried in edible oil to obtain a desired color, texture, flavor, and moisture content.
