Green beans have many common names - string beans, pole beans, snap beans just to name a few. Two of my favorite ways to eat green beans is to break it off the plant and eat it fresh; the other is pickled.
Sterlize the canning jars being used. For every quart of water needed to cover beans, add 1 teaspoon coarse salt or sea salt. Cook beans in boiling salted water until crisp tender. Drain the beans and the pack the beans in the hot sterilized jars. Mix the remaining ingredients and heat to a boil. Pour the liquid over the beans and seal. Wait a few days to let the beans absorb the flavor then enjoy.
