A quick and easy recipe for Refrigerator Pickled Beans. Great for snacking, as a side, or as a garnish for Caesar or Bloody Mary cocktails.

Provided by Elaine

Categories     Sides

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups green beans ((fresh) enough to completely fill a 16 oz. Mason jar: about 2 cups, stems removed)
1 cup vinegar, (white or apple cider)
1 cup water
2 tsp sugar
1 - 2 cloves minced garlic , (OR 1 to 2 tablespoons minced garlic scapes)
1 ½ tsp coarse sea salt
2 - 3 sprigs fresh dill
1 slice small onion
½ tsp whole black peppercorns
¼ to 1 tsp red pepper flakes, (depending on how hot you want them)

Steps:

  • Make the brine first, as it needs to cool. Combine the vinegar, water, sugar, salt and garlic in a small saucepan and heat to boiling. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Prepare the beans. Wash the beans and remove the stems but leave the tip on. Use the straightest ones, then fill the jar so you know exactly how many to use.
  • Remove them from the jar and trim the bunch all at once with a sharp knife so that they will fit in the jar with about 1/2 inch of headroom.
  • Blanch and shock the beans to preserve their colour and crispness. Bring a pot of water to a boil, then add the beans and boil for 30 seconds. Remove the beans and immediately plunge into an ice bath (a large bowl filled with ice and water) to stop the cooking. Drain and set aside.
  • Sterilize the jar and lid by washing in hot soapy water, rinsing thoroughly and pouring boiling water over all. Let it stand for a few minutes.
  • Fill the jar with the beans. Add the peppercorns, onion slice, red pepper flakes, and fresh dill. Carefully pour the cooled brine over top so that the beans are completely covered. Put the lid on tightly. Store in the refrigerator. Allow the flavours to develop for at least 2 days.
  • These will last for about 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

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.

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.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 78 g, Fiber 1 g

Tips:

  • Choose tender yellow beans: Select beans that are young, slender, and free from blemishes or bruises.
  • Prepare the beans properly: Trim the ends of the beans and cut them into uniform pieces. This will ensure even cooking and pickling.
  • Use a flavorful pickling solution: The pickling solution is what gives the beans their flavor, so be sure to use a recipe that you enjoy. There are many different variations available, so you can experiment to find one that you like.
  • Allow the beans to pickle for at least two weeks: This will give them time to absorb the flavors of the pickling solution. The longer you pickle the beans, the more flavorful they will be.
  • Store the pickled beans properly: Once the beans are pickled, they can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to a year. Be sure to keep them covered in the pickling solution to prevent them from drying out.

Conclusion:

Pickled yellow beans are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or side dish. They are perfect for summer picnics, potlucks, or anytime you need a quick and healthy snack. With a little planning, you can enjoy pickled yellow beans all year long. So next time you see fresh yellow beans at the market, be sure to pick up a few extra to pickle. You won't be disappointed!
