Spicy Cajun Pickled Green Beans and Carrots
Report
You'll find these pickled green beans everywhere in New Orleans, especially in bloody marys! These are super easy, they pack a punch, and are great for snacking, for sandwiches, and of course, bloody marys.

Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. fresh green beans trimmed
- 2 carrots sliced into "green bean" size
- 1 clove garlic sliced
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
- 1/4 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
- 1 cup white vinegar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Fit as many green beans and carrots as you can into a jar, vertically.
- Add the garlic and bay leaf to the jar, using a chopstick or something similar to slide them down the sides of the jar.
- Add oregano, thyme, cayenne pepper, celery seed, and peppercorns directly to the jar.
- Bring vinegar, water, sugar, and salt to a boil in a small saucepan to make a brine, stirring to make sure sugar and salt are dissolved.
- Pour brine over vegetables in jar, making sure to cover all the vegetables and fill to the top.
- Allow jar to cool, and keep in refrigerator for 6 months. These will taste best if you allow them to sit in the fridge at least overnight, and the flavor will intensify as time goes on.
