Dried strawberries

Overview

I've been wanting to make dried strawberries for a long time, and I just started this Sunday. But strawberries are expensive, 17 yuan per pound, which is not very good. Once they are dried, there won't be much left, but it doesn't hurt to play with them; they have a little toughness, sour and sweet dried strawberries are really delicious. Another thing to remember is not to pour out the sugar liquid in which the strawberries are boiled, save it for making jelly (or drinks), that is my specialty
