Fjord Chips

Fjord Chips is a modern, Nordic snack that combines local origins, high-quality ingredients, and artisanal production methods. The products are made in Norway, amidst the potato fields of Frosta, using local potatoes, Scandinavian rapeseed oil, and Norwegian sea salt. The result is a crisp, high-quality potato chip that tastes authentically like potato, with a flavor profile based on balanced and carefully considered spice combinations.

Fjord Chips has its roots in the Frosta region of Central Norway. The area is often referred to as “Trondheim’s kitchen garden” because it is known for its exceptionally high-quality agricultural produce. The idea behind Fjord Chips is simple: to produce potato chips as close as possible to the source of the raw materials and to utilize local, high-quality Nordic ingredients. The potatoes go straight from local farmers to production, ensuring freshness and consistent quality in every batch.

Fjord Chips are made from carefully selected potatoes that are fried with their skins on. Leaving the skin on preserves the potato’s flavor and crispiness. The chips are fried slowly in small batches in high-quality Scandinavian rapeseed oil, which helps preserve the potato’s natural flavor and creates a particularly crisp texture. The production method resembles that of traditional kettle chips.

The flavor profile of Fjord Chips is no accident. Norwegian Michelin-starred chef Christopher Davidsen, known for his high-level culinary expertise and appreciation of Nordic ingredients, is responsible for developing the products’ flavor profiles. His mission is to create flavors that complement the natural taste of high-quality potatoes, rather than letting strong spices overpower it.

Davidsen’s approach is particularly evident in the fact that Fjord Chips’ flavors are balanced and recognizable. For example, Grilled Paprika combines subtle smokiness and sweetness, while Dill & Pickle brings out a fresh Nordic flavor profile without excessive acidity. Thanks to Michelin-level product development, each flavor is designed to support the chip’s texture and the potato’s own character.
