Categories     Healthy Potluck Side Dish Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds green beans, stem ends trimmed (about 9 cups)
6-18 small whole dried chile peppers
3 cups distilled white vinegar or cider vinegar
3 cups water
1 ½ cups sugar
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Place a large bowl of ice water next to the stove. Bring a large pot of water to a boil in a large pot. Add half of the green beans, cover, return to a boil and cook for 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the beans to the ice water to cool. Repeat with the remaining beans.
  • Drain the cooled beans and divide among 6 pint-size (2-cup) canning jars or similar-size tempered-glass or heatproof-plastic containers with lids. Add 1 to 3 chile peppers to each jar.
  • Combine vinegar, 3 cups water, sugar and salt in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar and salt dissolve. Boil for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Carefully fill jars (or containers) with brine to within 1/2 inch of the rim, covering the beans completely. (Discard any leftover brine.)
  • Place the lids on the jars (or containers). Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

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.

Categories     beverage

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

6 pounds tomatoes, heirloom preferred
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1/4 cup onion
1 jalapeno, seeded
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-hot horseradish
4 teaspoons celery salt
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon white pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
4 teaspoons pickled vegetable juice
Hot Pickled Green Beans, for garnish, recipe follows
Ice, for serving
12 ounces vodka (2 ounces per cocktail)
1 1/2 cups water
2 teaspoons sea salt, divided
1 tablespoon agave syrup
2 cups cider vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, plus 1 lime, very thinly sliced
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
1 red chile, sliced in 8 long strips *see Cook's Note
6 cloves garlic, peeled, plus 2 tablespoons minced
1 1/2 pounds string beans, trimmed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Wash and dry the tomatoes and remove the stems. Put the tomatoes, garlic, onions and jalapeno in a large glass baking dish (9 by 13-inch). Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until just starting to brown, about 45 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool and put through a food mill to remove the seeds and skin. Add the mixture to a medium bowl and puree with stick blender. Pour into a large glass container and refrigerate. When cool, add the seasonings and the pickled vegetable juice and stir well.
  • For service, add a few pickled green beans to each glass, fill with ice, and add 2 ounces vodka. Pour in the prepared tomato juice, stir and serve immediately.
  • *Cook's Note: Seeds-in for hot, seeds-out for medium-hot. If you cannot find a red chile, substitute 2 jalapenos. A red chile is a ripened jalapeno.
  • In a small saucepan, over high heat, bring the water to a boil, then turn off the heat and add 1 teaspoon salt and the agave, stirring until dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • In a glass bowl, add the vinegar, lime juice, lime slices, peppercorns, chile peppers, and whole and minced garlic. Stir in the cooled salt-agave water mixture.
  • Wash and trim the green beans. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium heat. Stir in the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, then add the beans. Cook until the beans begin to turn bright green and are just tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and drain. Rinse immediately with cold water and put them in an ice bath for 10 minutes. Drain well.
  • If you are canning, prepare the jar(s) according to processing directions, add the beans and then cover with the vinegar chile pepper mixture. Process in a canning pot for 3 minutes, remove and cool.
  • You can also put them in sterilized jars and refrigerate instead of doing the canning process. Just keep under refrigeration and eat within 1 month. Whichever method suits you best, allow these to marinate for 48 hours before eating.

SPICY PICKLED GREEN BEANS



Spicy Pickled Green Beans image

These snappy, spicy, garlicky beans are tasty on a relish tray, nestled alongside a hot dog, or used as a stirrer for a Bloody Mary. A blend of crushed red pepper and cayenne creates a well-rounded heat.

Provided by Marisa McClellan

Time 45m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups apple cider vinegar
2 cups water
2 tablespoons pickling salt
6 cloves garlic, crushed
3 teaspoons dill seed
1 ½ teaspoons crushed red pepper
¾ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed

Steps:

  • Submerge 3 pint jars on a rack in a large pot of water. Cover and bring to a rolling boil, then reduce heat to low to keep jars warm until ready to fill.
  • Combine vinegar, water, and pickling salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Working with one jar at a time, remove empty jars from canning pot and add 1/3 of crushed red and cayenne peppers to each. Pack green beans into jars, leaving 1/2 inch for headspace.
  • Slowly pour hot brine over beans, leaving 1/2 inch for headspace. Use a clean wooden chopstick to work air bubbles out of jars. Slip in additional beans if space allows; check headspace again and add more brine if necessary to bring to 1/2 inch from top.
  • Wipe jar rims, apply lids and bands (not too tightly), and return jars to canning pot. Cover pot and return water to a rolling boil. Process for 10 minutes. Turn off heat, remove pot lid, and let jars stand in the cooling water 5 minutes to help ensure a good vacuum seal.
  • Move jars to a folded kitchen towel or wooden cutting board to cool completely before checking seals. Any unsealed jars should be refrigerated and eaten promptly. Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place. Sealed jars are shelf-stable at least 1 year.
