INSTRUCTIONS
Trim and remove string from the beans. Rinse well and set aside. Sterilize
jars and lids in boiling water. When jars are cool enough to handle, fill
each upright with beans until they are snug. Insert chiles and garlic
cloves preferably around outside so they can be seen (both for decorative
reasons and also to alert that they are spicy). Divide peppercorns and dill
among jars. Separately bring the water, vinegar and salt to a boil in a
non-reactive sauce pan. Ladle the hot brine over the beans leaving about
1/2-inch head space. Wipe jar edge clean and screw on sterilized lid and
band according to manufacturers instructions. Process in a boiling water
bath for 12 minutes. Remove and allow to cool completely at room
temperature away from drafts. Check lids to make sure proper seal has been
attained. Store for at least one month before using to allow flavors to
develop. This recipe yields 4 pints.
