	From what I've heard, most stoves don't have a low enough
temperature so the trick is to leave the door open a crack to let some
of the excess heat to escape.

	I've been looking for a method of sun drying fish while on a
trip so you could catch a fish one day and have some of it on the second
or third days.  I imagine the recipe is lots of sun, air and dryness.
Don't know if you have to cook/boil it first or hang them out raw.  From
the pictures I've seen, native Americans just hang salmon out to dry &
cure and just saw off a chunk in the winter as needed.
