might be worth looking up some Panamanian patacones recipes and see if you can find some good tips or tricks.

I’m in Panama right now and only learned about plantain chips, locally called patacones, since I got here.

there are tons of local stands that sell them, and every person makes them completely differently in terms of crispiness, thickness, flavor, seasoning, but fairly individually consistent.

just throwing out some patacone thoughts since I’ve been here, and since I love patacones now.

they’re extremely popular in Panama, so you might find some pretty good recipes.
