Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make these up to 1 week ahead of time.
- How to Store: Place the pickled green beans sealed in the jar with the lid in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 weeks. These will not freeze.
- Use a butter knife to help move the ingredients around once the brine is in the jar, along with the green beans.
- For best flavor results, wait at least 24 hours before eating the pickled green beans. The longer you wait, the more intense in flavor they will get.
- Make sure your jars are completely clean and sterilized before using them.
- Depending on the size of your green beans, you may need more or less to fill the jars.
- Pickled green beans can sometimes take 2 to 3 extra days to break down while fermenting in the refrigerator so that they are more tender.
