Dill Yellow Beans Recipes

Steps:

• These directions are for one jar.
• Adjust to suit the number of jars you will need for your beans.
• Sterilize canning jar (s) and lids (&rubber rings, if you are using old style jars).
• Trim ends off beans.
• Cook in boiling water just until tender (4-8 minutes).
• Drain and pour cold water over beans to chill.
• Drain thoroughly then arrange in (sterilized) jar.
• To each jar add salt, vinegar, sugar, dill, and garlic.
• Add COLD water to fill.
• Seal (screw on lids- with rings, if using old style jars).
• Store jars in a pan or container (brine may bubble over).
• Ready to eat in 7-10 days.
• If mold develops in jar or if beans turn mushy, discard.

Steps:

• Boil whole beans for 8 minutes.
• Pack in jars standing up.
• Put 1 teaspoons dill seed, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoons turmeric in each jar.
• Boil the vinegar, water, and sugar together; pour over beans.
• Put hot lids on jars and seal.
• Put in water bath for 10 minutes.

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.
