PICKLED STRING BEANS, POLE BEANS, AND CORN

Steps:

• Wash 8 glass pint jars and lids (you can use canning jars, but you don't need to) in hot soapy water and rinse well.
• Trim stem end of beans and cut away any bruises or bad spots.
• Place about 2 tablespoons corn and 1 1/2 teaspoons coriander seeds in each jar. Pack tightly with beans and add 2 more tablespoons corn.
• Bring 3 3/4 cups water, the vinegar, and the salt to a boil. Pour hot liquid over beans, covering them completely and leaving 1/2 inch of space beneath the rim of each jar. Place lids on jars and let stand until completely cool. Store in the refrigerator and serve within a week.

PICKLED GREEN BEANS (AKA DILLY BEANS)

Steps:

• Prep your canning pot by inserting a rack to keep your jars off the bottom of the pot, place pint jars in and fill it with water. Bring to a boil to sterilize while you prepare the rest of your ingredients.
• Wash and trim your beans so that they fit in your jar. If you have particularly long beans, your best bet is to cut them in half, although by doing so, you do lose the visual appeal of having all the beans standing at attending.
• Combine vinegar, water and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. While it's heating up, pack your beans into the jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace (distance between the tops of the beans and the rim of the jar).
• To each jar, add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1 clove of garlic and 1 teaspoon dill seeds.
• Pour the boiling brine over the beans, making sure to leave that 1/2 inch headspace.
• Use a plastic knife to remove air bubbles from jar by running it around the interior of the jar. Wipe the rims and apply the lids and rings.
• Process for 5 minutes in a boiling water bath (remember that you don't start timing until the pot has come to a roiling boil).
• These beans want to hang out for a least two weeks before eating, to thoroughly develop their flavor.

CRISP PICKLED GREEN BEANS

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.
