Directions

Remove leaves and stems from the strawberries. Put them in a blender with the lemon juice. Puree until completely smooth. Strain into a pot.

Heat the puree over medium-low heat and let simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally as it foams and bubbles. Taste and add sugar as needed. Halfway through, preheat the oven to 200º.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or baking mat. Spread the strawberry mixture to form a rectangle. Don't spread it too thin or it will become crisp, not pliable.

Bake for 2 hours, and then turn off the oven and let the mixture cook in the residual heat for another 2 hours or longer. Do not open the oven door.

Let cool before slicing and serving.
