I have seen tons of recipes for Dilly Beans. Is that what your wantin? It's all over the internet, just google it. I've never heard of pickled though.

My recipe is pretty much the same as dill pickles. hot pepper flakes, mustard seed, garlic and dill in the jar. Put in the fresh greenbeans. (I like the long skinny French Filet beans). Cover with boiling equal parts vinegar and water w/salt.Boiling water bath for 10 min. They go great with bloody marys.

I use the recipe from my dill pickles and it works like a charm. If you go to the bernardin site you will be able to find a recipe as well.
Give thanks to yourself everyday for all the wonderful things you do! |

I haven't heard of anyone doin that. I'm not sure if it would change the taste or not. My aunt, our family's cannin queen, says if you don't blanch them they will stay crisp for 2 years if stored in a cool location. I have helped her put up regular green beans that way when she had a huge year. She knows how many jars they need a year and the unblanched jars are marked with an 'x' so she knows to let them stay till last and you still have to cook them longer than normal!

Just made some Dilly Beans last week!
I snap some beans into bite size pieces for small jars,
and use long pieces in the larger, taller jars.
The snapped beans fill the jars quicker, with no need
to squeeze in the last few to a jar. I tap them a bit
on a towel to settle them into the jars, before adding
the hot pickling juice.
