Pickled Dilly Beans – Amish Canning Recipe
Pickled Dilly Beans
Ingredients:
- 4 lbs. fresh tender green or yellow beans
- 8 to 16 heads fresh dill
- 8 cloves garlic
- ½ cup pickling or canning salt
- 4 cups 5% vinegar
- 4 cups water
- 1 tsp. hot red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions:
Wash and trim ends of beans.
In each pint jar, place 1 or 2 dill heads and 1 clove garlic.
Pack jars (pints only) with beans, standing them upright; trim beans if necessary to ensure proper fit, leaving half an inch of headspace.
Combine salt, vinegar, water, and pepper flakes (if using). Bring to a boil. Add hot vinegar solution to beans, leaving ½ inch of headspace. Following the directions in the post, “Water-Bath Canning: A Step-by-Step Guide,” process the pickled dilly beans as follows:
Process pints for 5 minutes at 0 to 1,000 feet altitude; 10 minutes at 1,001 to 6,000 feet altitude; 15 minutes above 6,000 feet.
Alternatively, you can process the jars using the “Lower-Temperature Pasteurization Process” found in The Amish Canning Cookbook.
Yield: About 8 pints
