Pickled Green Beans with Dill, Tarragon, Garlic, and Peppercorns Recipe
Posted by
Ingredients:
- about 1 1/4 tsp. black peppercorns
- 1 qt. (32 oz.) white-wine vinegar (5 percent acidity)
Directions:
- Follow directions in Canning ABCs: Get Ready (below), using 7 regular or widemouthed pint jars, rings, and lids.
- Trim stem ends from beans, keeping tips intact, so beans are 3 1/2 to 4 in. long.
- Pack jars: Holding each jar on its side, insert 2 sprigs dill, 2 sprigs tarragon, and a garlic clove. Fill snugly with beans, tips down. Sprinkle about 12 peppercorns into each jar.
- In a large saucepan, bring vinegar, 1 qt. water, and salt (if using) to a boil over high heat. Ladle liquid over beans to within 1/2 in. of rims; discard any extra liquid. Wipe rims and seal with lids and rings as directed.
- Process as directed in Canning ABCs: Process Jars, but keep water at 180° to 185°, checking with a thermometer, for 30 minutes (add 5 minutes for every 3,000 ft. in altitude above sea level). Cool, check seals, and store as directed (up to 1 year).
- Canning ABCs
- GET READY:
- Gather equipment: canning jars with matching metal lids and rings, a boiling-water canner with rack, a widemouthed funnel, tongs, and a jar lifter. Most hardware stores carry these basics.
- Fill canner with water and heat it up. The canner should be two-thirds full for pint and half-pint jars; half-full for quart jars. Set rack on pan rim and cover pan. Over high heat, bring water to a boil (180° to 185° for pickles); this takes 30 to 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, wash canning jars and rings in a dishwasher and hand-wash lids; drain. For jam only, sterilize the washed jars too: When water in canner boils, place jars on rack, lower into water, and boil for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to a simmer and keep jars in water until needed.
- Nest lids inside rings in a saucepan and cover with water. Heat until small bubbles form (do not boil). Remove pan from heat and cover.
- Rinse produce, then prepare as recipe directs.
- FILL AND SEAL JARS:
- Ladle foods into jars through a wide funnel or arrange with fingers, leaving the headspace (the distance between jar rim and food) specified by the recipe. If the last jar isn't completely full, let cool, then serve or chill; do not process.
- Release air bubbles in chunky mixtures: Gently run a knife around inside of jars. Wipe jar rims and threads with a clean, damp cloth so that lids will seal.
- Center lids on jars so the sealing compound on lids touches jar rims. Screw metal rings on firmly, but don't force.
- PROCESS JARS:
- Lower jars on rack into water. The water should cover jars by at least 1 in.; add hot water as needed during processing. Cover canner and return water to a boil. Cook for time specified in recipe.
- Lift rack with jars onto edge of canner, using tongs and a hot pad. Using jar lifter, transfer jars to towels on a work surface. Don't tighten rings. Cool completely at room temperature. You may hear a ping as jars form a seal.
- Press on the center of each lid. If it stays down, the jar is sealed. If it pops up, it isn't (you can still eat the food-chill it as if it were leftovers). Label jars and store in a cool, dark place up to 1 year.
