Yeh, it was Bobad's post I was thinking of when I wondered about pickling. I think you need to slice them thin to dry them. We use a food dehydrator. You can make your own pretty easily with a box, a baking sheet and a light bulb. We eventually bought a dehydrator however, because we dry a number of herbs and foods. They are not expensive...but I don't think I would get one if I didn't often use one.
