Ingredients

  • 5 ounces of green beans
  • 1 to 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • a few sprigs of thyme and parsley

Instructions

  • Clean and trim green beans.
  • Place the green beans vertically into a one-quart jar while sporadically adding garlic so that it is evenly distributed in the jar; top with fresh herbs.
  • Place the water, salt, and vinegar into a small saucepan and cook over medium-high heat. Stir occasionally to allow the salt to dissolve.
  • Pour the warm brine over the vegetables in the jar.
  • Seal the jar and give it a gentle shake to combine all of the ingredients, and place the jar in the refrigerator for at least a day, two to three days is best.
