Canned Green Beans

The trick is in the packing. Instead of cutting them in pieces, I leave the beans whole and spend considerable time stacking them so they all stand up just so. I also grow all of my own vegetables and pick only the best to enter.

Type: Vegetables

Recipe Ingredients

  Fresh green beans
  Boiling water
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlSalt per pint jar
