Ingredients
- 4 cloves garlic
- 10 prigs fresh dill
- 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 pound green beans trimmed to fit pint jars (see note 1)

- 2 tablespoons canning and pickling salt (see note 2)
Instructions
- In the bottom of each of the 2 pint jars, add 2 cloves garlic, 5 sprigs dill, and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes. Stack beans vertically inside so they stand upright in the jar. Pack the beans as tightly as possible, aiming for about 6 ounces beans per jar.
