About Potato twister

The Potato Twister is a popular street food snack with roots in Korean cuisine, known for its eye-catching spiral shape. Made from a whole potato thinly sliced and skewered, it's stretched into a twist and deep-fried to crispy perfection. Often seasoned with savory spices, herbs, or even cheese powder, it offers a flavorful and satisfying crunch. While potatoes are naturally rich in vitamins like B6 and C and provide potassium, the healthiness of the Potato Twister depends greatly on preparation. Deep frying adds significant amounts of fat and calories, and some toppings may further increase sodium levels. Despite this, it offers an occasional indulgence that celebrates creativity in food presentation and dynamic flavor. For a healthier twist, baking instead of frying and opting for lighter seasonings can make it a more nutritious snack option.
