CRISP PICKLED GREEN BEANS



Crisp Pickled Green Beans image

This recipe is from my Grandmother's cookbook she made to pass to all her grandchildren. They come out very, very crisp with a wonderful dill flavor. The red pepper flakes give them a nice punch. They are much better than the recipes that call for cooking the beans first.

Time 1h10m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 ½ pounds fresh green beans
2 ½ cups distilled white vinegar
2 cups water
¼ cup salt
1 clove garlic, peeled
1 bunch fresh dill weed
¾ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Sterilize 6 (1/2 pint) jars with rings and lids and keep hot. Trim green beans to 1/4 inch shorter than your jars.
  • In a large saucepan, stir together the vinegar, water and salt. Add garlic and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. In each jar, place 1 sprig of dill and 1/8 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Pack green beans into the jars so they are standing on their ends.
  • Ladle the boiling brine into the jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the tops. Discard garlic. Seal jars with lids and rings. Place in a hot water bath so they are covered by 1 inch of water. Simmer but do not boil for 10 minutes to process. Cool to room temperature. Test jars for a good seal by pressing on the center of the lid. It should not move. Refrigerate any jars that do not seal properly. Let pickles ferment for 2 to 3 weeks before eating.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 pints

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 lbs fresh green beans or 4 lbs yellow beans, about
3 1/2 cups distilled white vinegar
3 cups bottled water
3 tablespoons pickling salt or 3 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
3 bunches fresh dill, rinsed and stemmed (1/2 bunch per jar)
6 -12 cloves garlic, peeled and halved (1 or 2 per jar)
6 baby carrots, halved lengthwise (2 halves per jar)
6 small serrano chilies, rinsed and stemmed (1 whole chile per jar)
1 medium onion, cut into 6 1/4 inch slices (1 slice per jar)

6 medium bay leaves or 12 small bay leaves (1 or 2 per jar)
36 whole black peppercorns (6 per jar)

18 whole pink peppercorns (3 per jar, pretty) (optional)

1/4 teaspoon mustard seeds
1/4 teaspoon dill seed

Steps:

  • If desired, just use 12 black peppercorns, and omit pink and green peppercorns and/or juniper berries.
  • This is much prettier, though, and tastes better.
  • Sterilize 6 wide-mouth pint canning jars in boiling water in processing pot, which will be used later for processing beans.
  • While water is heating, wash beans, trim ends, and cut in 4" lengths.
  • Slice onions, lemons, and carrots, and peel garlic.
  • Set aside all of the dry spices in 6 small piles, ready go in jars.
  • In a 3-quart saucepan, combine vinegar, water, salt, and sugar, and bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat, and maintain at a low simmer while packing the jars.
  • Remove jars from water bath, drain, and place an onion slice, dry spices, and bay leaves in the bottom of each jar.
  • Pack green beans, serrano chile, carrot halves, and garlic tightly into jar, place fresh dill on top, tucking in so none touches the rim.
  • Top with a lemon slice to hold down dill, and repeat with all remaining jars, leaving ¼” headspace (if ingredients are cut to specifications, it all fits).
  • Fill jars with boiling vinegar mixture, leaving ¼” headspace.
  • Make sure all of the dill is tucked in, wipe the rims, and immediately seal with sterilized lids and rings.
  • Place in hot water bath over high heat, bring to a boil, and process for 10 minutes after water returns to a boil.
  • Remove from water bath, and set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Check for seal by pressing down on lids.
  • If they are down and don’t pop in and out, the seal is good.
  • If seal is not good, reprocess with new lids to try for a seal, or store jars that did not seal in refrigerator until used.
  • Allow to set for at least 3 weeks before using.
  • Makes 6 pints.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to cut the vegetables: This will help to ensure that the vegetables are cut evenly and cooked evenly.
  • Blanch the vegetables before cooking: This will help to preserve their color and flavor. To blanch the vegetables, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the vegetables and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Drain the vegetables and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices: This will help to add flavor and depth to the dish. Some good options include dill, parsley, thyme, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Vegetables should be cooked until they are tender-crisp, but not mushy. Overcooked vegetables will lose their flavor and nutrients.
