Dilly Beans

Dilly Beans

Sterile jars
Green beans
Dill
Garlic cloves
Red pepper flakes
Salt
2 cups vinegar
2 cups water


In a canning pot, sterilize jars you plan to use. [There are other methods out there, such as using a dishwasher or microwave. Just make sure you do your research to ensure you are comfortable with the approach!]

Wash and trim the ends of the green beans. Fill the sterile jars each with 1/2 teaspoon of dill seed (or dill sprig), 1 garlic clove, and a shake of red pepper flakes. Stand the green beans in the jar.

In a separate pot, boil a brine of salt, vinegar, and water. Ladle brine into each jar until the beans are covered, and then cap the jars. Place jars in a water bath in the canning pot for 5 minutes.
