Dill Yellow Beans Recipes

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 8 (1 pint) jars in boiling water for at least 5 minutes.
• Combine the water, pickling salt and vinegar in a large pot, and bring to a boil. When it begins to boil, reduce heat to low, and keep at a simmer while you pack the jars.
• In each jar place the following: 1 head of dill, 1 tablespoon of pickling spice, 1 tablespoon of mustard seed, 1 dried chile pepper, 2 cloves of garlic, and 1/8 teaspoon of alum. Pack beans into the spiced jars in a standing position.
• Ladle the hot brine into jars, leaving 1/2 inch of space at the top. Screw the lids onto the jars, and process in a hot water bath for 6 minutes to seal. Store for at least 2 weeks before eating.

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.
