~----------------- Wash beans and snip off ends. Discard any that are
wilted or discolored. In a saucepan combine water, vinegar, pickling
salt, sugar, bay leaves, and onions. Bring liquid to a boil and
simmer for 10 minutes. Drop beans into boiling water and cook for

in cold water. Pack beans upright in 8-ounce jars with a couple of
slices of onion. Add 1 hot pepper, 1 clove garlic, and a sprig of
dill to each jar and pour hot vinegar mixture over the beans to
overflowing. Seal immediately. Makes 8 8-ounce jars. NOTE: ~----
Thinly cut carrots or other firm vegetables may be used in place of
or in addition to the beans.
