Pickled green beans, often called dilly beans, are a crunchy, tangy snack that captures the freshness of summer harvest in every bite.

Unlike cucumbers, green beans keep their snap even after pickling, making them a favourite for adding texture and zest to meals. The combination of garlic, dill, vinegar, and optional red pepper flakes gives these beans a bold flavour profile that’s equally refreshing and savoury.

They’re not just for snacking — pickled green beans shine as garnishes for cocktails like Bloody Marys, or as tangy additions to salads, sandwiches, and charcuterie boards. The recipe is versatile too: make it spicy with chili flakes, or keep it classic with dill.

Whether you can them for long-term storage or refrigerate for quick use, pickled green beans are an easy way to bring homemade charm and flavour to your kitchen.

Directions

Wash and trim green beans so they fit snugly in pint jars.
In a saucepan, combine water, vinegar, pickling salt, and sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring until dissolved.
Place 1 clove of garlic, 1 sprig dill, and a pinch of red pepper flakes into each sterilised pint jar.
Pack green beans tightly into jars, standing upright.
Pour hot brine over beans, leaving ½ inch headspace. Tap jars gently to release bubbles.
Seal jars with lids. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes for shelf-stable storage, or refrigerate jars if skipping canning.
Let jars sit at least 48 hours before serving for best flavour.
