[edit] Description

[edit] Ingredients

• 1 lb fresh green beans, cleaned and kept whole
• 1 cup vinegar (I used wine vinegar)
• 1 cup water
• 1 T mustard seeds
• 1 T fresh dill or 1 tsp dry
• 2-3 cloves garlic, minced (or 1/2 tsp garlic powder)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp Sugar
• cayenne pepper to taste

[edit] Directions

Put all in a big pot with a lid. Bring to a boil, turn down heat and let simmer for 10-15 minutes or to your desired degree of tender-crispness. I let them go until they just turn that army green color.

Keep in tightly closed container (plastic or glass preferably) in the refirgerator. They keep about a week or so and improve in flavor. Make sure you put the Beans AND juice in the container or they will dry out.
