Dilly Beans
We made Dilly Beans last week. These are pickled green beans and are DELICIOUS. My friend Linda gave me her recipe. She says it is from the Ball Blue Book recipe book.
Dilly Beans
2 lbs. green beans
1/4 c. canning salt (do not use regular)
2 1/2 c. vinegar
2 1/2 c. water
1 tsp. cayenne, divided
4 cloves garlic, divided
4 heads dill (or 4 tsp. dill seed), divided
Trim beans. Combine salt, vinegar and water in large saucepot. Bring to boil. Pack beans lengthwise into hot jars, leaving 1/4 in. head space. Add 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper, 1 clove garlic, 1 head dill (or 1 tsp. dill seeds) into each jar. Ladle hot liquid over beans, leaving 1/4 inch head space. Remove air bubbles. wipe rims with clean wet rag; put on lids. Process 10 min. in boiling water bath canner. (If you have not canned before, please read up on safe canning practices before canning anything.)
