From 26 October in the departures area of the Milanese airport it will be possible to buy and taste loose Patatas Nana, the first chips that combine craftsmanship with the use of only three ingredients without preservatives and flavourings.

The chips can be enjoyed hot, in fact they will be heated by Nana_Lampada, a special lamp patented by Patatas Nana. Thus was born a fragrant, healthy, tasty and gourmet snack for all those who are in line at check-in or have to wait for a flight.
But why are Patatas Nana so special?
Because they offer the potato chip in its essence and purity, without adding artificial flavours.
Patatas Nana are made with only Agria variety potatoes grown in Spain, harvested and stored underground in the dark to keep intact all the organoleptic properties that give them their original taste. Then they are washed, lightly peeled and cut into slices, before being fried in pure sunflower oil – the best since it is tasteless – at 155ºC. They are drained, dried, left to cool at room temperature and salted by hand with pure fine sea salt. Finally, they are bagged with latest generation machinery that guarantees the original flavor of the product without the addition of preservative gases. Precisely for this reason they have a short deadline, which cannot exceed 5 months, to taste a potato chip as if it were just fried.
From Spain to the Marches
Patatas Nana were born from an idea of chef Michele Gilebbi who took over an old chip shop in Granada in the heart of the Sierra Nevada and transformed it into what is now the artisan workshop where the chips are produced.
But the story does not stop in Spain and arrives directly in the Marche region, in Senigallia, the city where the chef lives and works and where he meets Francesco Mazzaferri, a salesman in the food sector.
One day by chance Francesco tastes Patatas Nana, a real electrocution, a rediscovery of the authentic flavor of the potato chip and from there the decision, together with Michele, to bet everything on Patatas Nana and want to infect everyone with their goodness.
