Default Drying leafy veges

You can buy dried veges at the Asian market. I thought I'd try drying
some bak choy and cabbage. Left them in the sun for a few days.
Haven't try to use them in soup yet.

Anyone use drying to preserve leafy veges?

I haven't, but I'm guessing you'd better color drying on screens under
cover, so there's good air circulation but not direct sunlight.

/me/ in the middle of the garlic harvest, which involves washing
immediately after pulling/digging*, then drying on racks and bundling to
cure for another few weeks.

*My soil is 50% rock, 50% clay, and 50% epoxy...
