Dilly Beans! Dilly Beans!

Same recipe as last year, hopefully these will be equally delicious!

These are our favorite kind of green beans: Nor'easers, originally the seeds were a gift from Rosalie's mom, Nora, and we love them so much we save the seeds every year.

If you need some seeds in the spring, ask us!

I had never made dilly beans before. I looked at lots of recipes on the internet, and called a friend whose beans I liked last year.


















I made myself an assembly line on ingredients so we could pack the jars easily when they came out of the dishwasher.
















Here are the finished beans.
We'll see how they are.
So that I remember for later the recipe I used was approximately:

In a pint jar:
1/4 teaspoon each of mustard seed
coriander seed
black peppercorn
cloves
1/8 teaspoon allspice
1 clove garlic
2-3 slices jalapeno
piece of cinnamon stick
bay leaf
1 slice orange gypsy pepper

The liquid was 1/2 water 1/2 vinegar, with a little salt
