Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 ounces green beans washed and stems trimmed but leave the other side intact, very fresh
  • 1 teaspoon coriander seeds whole
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seed whole, yellow variety
  • 1 teaspoon dill seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon black peppercorns whole
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 4 dill sprigs, fresh
  • For the Pickling Brine:
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 1/2 cup red wine vinegar (can use all white vinegar if preferred)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon cane sugar (paleo: use coconut sugar)
  • 1 teaspoon salt sea salt
  • 1 garlic quartered, large clove

Instructions

  1. Place the spices in the bottom of a large jar. Pack the beans, cut stem side down, as tightly as you can into the jar. Press some sprigs of fresh dill down in between the beans.
  2. To make the pickling brine: Add the brine ingredients into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes. Pour the boiling brine over the beans. Top off with more pickling brine if needed to ensure the beans are fully immersed under the brine. Gently tap the jars against the counter a few times to remove all the air bubbles.Let the jars cool to room temperature. Store the pickles in the refrigerator. The pickles will improve with flavor as they age. Wait at least 4 days before eating them. They'll keep in the fridge for up to 2 months.This recipe can be doubled, tripled, etc.
  3. For Canning: Dilly beans are best consumed within a couple of months, but if you want to store them even longer you can also can them: Use canning jars, seal the jars and process them in a water bath canner for 10 minutes. The beans will still have some crisp to them but won't be crunchy like the refrigerator pickled green beans.
