Instructions: Cover enough wire cooling racks with a layer of dampened cheesecloth to accomodate all the cranberries in a single layer.

Put the racks of cranberries in a cold oven, set to 120F., and when it reaches that temperature, wedge a fork or a spoon in the oven door to keep it ajar. Then raise the temperature to 150F. and dry the cranberries for 2 hours.

Turn the cranberries over and continue drying them for at least another 2 hours, or until they are shriveled and dry to the touch when squeezed.

Remove the cranberries from the oven and let cool. Store in jars or an airtight tin.
