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.

Yield Makes about 3 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 7

2/3 cup coarse sea salt
2 pounds small, tender green beans or yellow wax beans, trimmed
6 fresh dill sprigs
6 small garlic cloves, smashed
3 small dried red chiles (such as cayenne or chile de árbol)
1 tablespoon dill seeds
1 teaspoon black peppercorns, crushed

Steps:

  • Stir salt and 1 gallon warm water in a large bowl until salt is dissolved. Let brine cool to room temperature.
  • Layer beans with remaining ingredients in a large ceramic, glass, or stainless-steel mixing bowl. Add brine to cover. Pour remaining brine into a resealable plastic bag; seal and place on beans to submerge. Cover bowl with a clean kitchen towel. Let stand at room temperature until bubbles form around edge of bowl, 4-5 days.
  • Spoon off any foam from surface of brine. Continue to let stand at room temperature, discarding foam as necessary, until beans are pickled, about 2 weeks.
  • Using a slotted spoon, divide beans, herbs, and spices among 3 clean 1-quart jars. Set a strainer with 2 layers of cheesecloth over a large pitcher; pour brine through strainer. Pour over beans in jars, leaving 1/2" space on top. Cover; chill up to 2 months.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans for the best flavor and texture.
  • Wash the beans thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Trim the ends of the beans, but leave them whole.
  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven to boil the beans. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Add salt to the boiling water to help preserve the beans' color and flavor.
  • Bring the beans to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until they are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Once the beans are cool, drain them well and pat them dry.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the vinegar, sugar, mustard seeds, celery seeds, and dill weed.
  • Pour the vinegar mixture over the beans and toss to coat.
  • Cover the beans and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.
