You start the same way on the stove, but then after using the blender you transfer it to baking sheets in the oven. (I used 275 on the convection setting). The increased surface area and only indirect heat allow it to boil off water quickly but without burning. Took about 3 hours and only had to stir it every 45 minutes or so.

To keep it you add a little lemon juice and can freeze it. I'll do that today. New ice cube trays arrived yesterday.
