To dry the fruit you will need to place it on a wire rack, allowing it to air dry for at least three weeks. You will be able to see the changes in the fruit, sensing a lighter, hollower feel as it dries. If you don't have a wire rack you can also choose to dry them on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. If you use the wax paper you should turn the fruit every day or every other day to ensure that the fruit dries evenly and doesn't begin to rot on one side. You will know that the fruit is dry when it is about 1/3 of its starting size and is more brown or pink than red. If you want a faster drying option you can also use a large food dehydrator. The food dehydrator will help the fruit dry in a lot less time and it will also dry more evenly.
