Lavender blue dilly dilly lavender green..... beans ..

Dilly beans. Or pickled beans. Ball Bluebook has a great recipe. I was doing these for a friend. They taste just like kosher dills... well, sort of , and the fact that they are beans and not cukes kind of makes a difference. But anyway. We made them. I love that with pickling , you can do things in a water bath canner that otherwise would require a pressure canner... like green beans.
Put them beans in the jars... along with the garlic and dill head and red peppers. The recipe calls for cayenne powder but I think these look prettier. They are arbol chili peppers I think... I can't remember. Anyway, they are red, and hot.
Isn't everything pretty?


I love the color before they get canned and cooked and look puke green.

All ready for the canner with their brine solution (1/2 AC vinegar and 1/2 water with salt..)




All done. Yayness.
