Drying Citrus Fruit for Christmas Decorations

This year, I supplied some of the dried fruit for the Christmas wreath.
I have purchased dried orange slices in the past, but it's so easy to do.  No special equipment is necessary.
I used oranges, lemons and limes, but the oranges were the most successful.

Here's how to do it:

• Slice fruit thinly.
• Blot with kitchen paper.
• Place on wire racks on top of baking sheets to collect any drips.
• Put in a low oven (140C) for 3 to 4 hours, checking that the fruit does not go brown. 
• (Fruit should be a little soft when it is finished, to allow you to put wires or ribbon through it.)
• Remove from oven and let cool.
