How are fat-free tarhana chips different from potato chips?
Fat-free tarhana chips are made from tarhana-based dough, while potato chips are made from sliced potatoes. The tarhana gives them a tangy fermented flavor, and this product is baked rather than fried.

What is Fat-Free Tarhana Chips?
Fat-Free Tarhana Chips are a crisp snack made by rolling out fermented tarhana—a traditional Turkish mixture of flour, yoghurt and vegetables—and baking it into thin pieces. They have a light crunch and a tangy, savoury flavour, often with the gentle warmth of the seasonings used in the tarhana. The “fat-free” name reflects the no-added-oil preparation; the listed fat is 0.8 g per 100 g.
In Turkey, they’re eaten by the handful between meals or alongside tea, and can also be crumbled over soup or salad. For English-speaking readers, they work well as a crunchy alternative to crackers with a yoghurt dip. They provide 7.2 g of fibre per 100 g, while most of their energy comes from carbohydrates, so pairing a modest portion with fresh vegetables or a protein-rich dip makes a more filling snack.
