Steps:

• Set oven racks to upper and lower positions and preheat oven to "warm;" use an oven thermometer to confirm temperature is between 140 and 160°F (60 to 70°C). If there is no "warm" setting, set oven to its lowest temperature and regulate temperature by keeping door ajar and/or opening and closing it as needed while monitoring an oven thermometer. Alternatively, you can use a dehydrator; set the temperature of a dehydrator to 145°F (63°C).
