Have you tried pickled green beans? Pickles should be everything: crisp, tangy and the perfect fix for your salty snack cravings. Enjoy a recipe of green beans pickled straight from a jar or a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich!
Just like zucchini, when the green beans hit the garden, they do it with joy! My first harvest went straight to a pot of green bean stew (fasolia), an obvious choice.
As the green bean harvest continued to come, I began to think about soaking them. Mom always added green beans to her torsi mix, so why? I brought some simple pickled salt water to make their fresh flavour shine. The result: crisp, flavorful green beans that take only 20 minutes to make!
