I found this recipe for quick pickled green beans and I gave it a try. I'm so glad I did. Not only was it super simple and quick to put together, the taste was exactly what I was looking for, too...great for snacking on or to serve as a garnish for a Bloody Mary.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 1/2 pound green beans, trimmed
- 1 cup white wine vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons pickling spice
- 1 garlic clove, peeled
Preparation
- Combine dill and green beans in a medium bowl. (I put the green beans and dill straight into a pickling jar)
- Combine vinegar and the remaining ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, and cook 1 minute or until sugar and salt dissolve. Pour over bean mixture (I poured right over green beans in the jars you see above). Let stand 2 hours. Drain or serve with a slotted spoon. (After my green beans cooled, I didn't drain, but stored them in the fridge. The recipe doesn't indicate how long they'll last, so I wouldn't chance more than a week. Ours are going quickly so will only last three days at most.)
