  5. Cut strawberries in half.
  6. Lay fleshy side up on oven tray leaving space between them in case juice leaks out.
  7. Sprinkle with salt.
  8. Turn oven down to keep warm setting.
  9. Place trays of strawberries in oven.
  10. Set timer for 30 minutes. When timer goes off open oven to check on the strawberries. (You want to allow air into the oven to circulate the heat.) unless you have a convection oven then you can just turn on the fan and set your timer for the full amount.)
  11. After an hour and a half flip strawberries over and cook for another hour and a half opening the oven every half hour.
  12. Once the strawberries are dried take them out of the oven and place on a cooling rack.
Notes
Do not try to speed along the process or cook too many strawberries on a tray. You need to cook these strawberries long and slow or they will burn and be a sticky mess. Makes sure to open your oven once every half hour and push air all the way inside. Your strawberries need to breathe while cooking for best results.
