Pasos

1

Gather all ingredients.

2

Sterilize 8 (1 pint) jars in boiling water for at least 5 minutes.

3

Combine water, pickling salt, and vinegar in a large pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and keep at a simmer while you pack the jars.

4

Place the following in each jar: 1 head of dill, 1 tablespoon of pickling spice, 1 tablespoon of mustard seed, 1 dried chile pepper, 2 cloves of garlic, and 1/8 teaspoon of alum. Pack beans into the spiced jars in a standing position.

5

Ladle the hot brine into jars, leaving 1/2 inch of space at the top. Screw the lids onto the jars.

6

Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.

7

Remove the jars from the stockpot and let rest, several inches apart, for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool dark place for at least 1 week before eating.
