A delightful twist on classic pickled green beans, enhanced with aromatic spices for a flavorful snack or side.
Clean the green beans and trim the ends.
Using fresh, firm green beans ensures a crisp texture after pickling.
Pack the green beans vertically into clean mason jars.
Arrange the beans tightly but without crushing them to maximize space.
Add the red pepper flakes, mustard seeds, and garlic cloves to each jar.
Distribute the spices evenly among the jars for consistent flavor.
In a pot, combine the vinegar, water, and salt. Bring to a boil.
Stir the brine occasionally to ensure the salt dissolves completely.
Pour the hot brine over the green beans in the jars, leaving a small headspace.
Use a ladle for precise pouring and to avoid spills.
Seal the jars with lids and process them in boiling water for 10 minutes.
Ensure the jars are fully submerged in water for proper sealing.
Allow the jars to cool and store them in a cool, dark place.
Check the lids for a proper seal before storing.
