Spicy Pickled Green Beans

With the 4lbs of green beans we picked last night, we need to do something to put them up for later.

I've already frozen some http://bit.ly/dAR9BX, and having done one canning exercise http://bit.ly/9qvUku I decided to do another.

I won't bore you with the complete step by step, but let's make some spicy pickled green beens.

Here we are all prepped and ready to go. Beans, garlic, dill, peppercorns, jalapeno. A brine of water, vinegar and salt.

Canning station outside so as not to steam up the inside.

Boiling away!

Cooling in a "cool dry place". They should be ready to try in about a month.
