Slice the watermelon into ½" slices

Use your knife to cut around the flesh and remove the rind.

Cut the flesh into shapes you prefer

Place pieces onto tea towels to drain a bit (I put mine on my dehydrator trays over the sink and just let them dry out for about fifteen minutes)

Place watermelon pieces on trays, using parchment paper if desired.

Dry at 135°F / 57°C for between 8-18 hrs until dry and leathery, with no signs of stickiness.

After 4-5 hours, flip pieces to help reduce sticking.

Condition

Store in an airtight container for 3-6 months.
