SWEET AND HOT QUICK PICKLED GREEN BEANS

QUICK PICKLED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Blanch 1/3 pound each halved baby carrots, green beans and yellow beans, 2 to 4 minutes. Cool in ice water, then put in a glass bowl with 1/2 sliced red onion. Make the brine: Boil 2 cups each white vinegar and water, 1/4 cup kosher salt, 2 bay leaves, 3/4 cup sugar, the zest and juice of 1 lemon, and 1 teaspoon each peppercorns and coriander seeds; pour over the vegetables, then let cool. Chill at least 4 hours.

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Wash the green beans. Snap or cut off the stem ends and tips. Trim all of the beans so that they will fit into pint jars with at least 1/2-inch head room between the top of the vegetables and the rims of the jars.
• Divide the dill, garlic, bay leaves, mustard seeds, cumin seeds and pepper flakes (if using) between two glass pint jars. It is not necessary to sterilize the jars for this recipe, but they should be scrupulously clean.
• Place one of the jars on its side and start laying in the green beans. It's easier to get them to stay lined up straight if you slide them in sideways rather than loading an upright jar from above. Pack the green beans in so tightly that it is impossible to squeeze in even one more bean. If they are loosely packed they will float up out of the brine, and you want them to stay fully immersed in the brine during the pickling process.
• Bring the water, vinegar, honey, and salt to boil in a small pot, stirring to dissolve the honey and salt. Skim off any foam and discard.
• Pour the hot brine over the green beans and seasonings.
• Tightly cover and store in the refrigerator.
