Yield Makes 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds green beans, ends trimmed
2 cups white-wine vinegar
2 1/4 cups water
3 tablespoons coarse salt
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 garlic cloves, peeled
1/4 cup fresh dill

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the green beans, and cook until tender but still slightly crisp, 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beans to a colander, and let drain. Transfer to a heatproof bowl or storage container, and set aside.
  • Combine vinegar, water, salt, peppercorns, and cayenne pepper in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add garlic and dill, and remove from heat. While still hot, pour vinegar mixture over green beans; let cool slightly. Cover tightly, and store in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks.
