Grandma's Green Beans

Notes

Author: Betty Sandau

Step 1
Clean and slice green beans. Pack tightly into jars, making sure to leave 1/2 inch at the top.
Step 2
Pour boiling water over green beans to fill jars.
Step 3
You may add pickling salt to the boiling water if preferred (prevents the water from becoming cloudy, but is not necessary).
Step 4
Run a non-metallic spoon around the sides to eliminate air bubbles.
Step 5
Add sealed jars into a boiling hot water bath.
Step 6
Boil jars for 3 hours, keeping the water line at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars.
