I cooked the vegetables about ten minutes then drained them in a colander. The pot went on the stove until it was boiling. I mixed all of these vegetables in a large pot and covered them with water. This amounted to about two and a half cups of peppers. I also picked seven small sweet peppers from the garden and cut them into small pieces. The next day, I sliced a large red onion into thin strips. I ended up with about five pounds of trimmed assorted garden beans. That evening, I spent the whole length of a movie trimming and cutting the beans into 1” pieces. So, back to the garden. I picked and picked until I had a huge basket of beans. I purchased all my seed from Seed Savers Exchange. The varieties I ended up with were: Kentucky Wonder Pole, Purple Podded Pole, Sultan’s Golden Crescent, and Ideal Market. I decided against growing bush beans because I wanted mine to climb and use the trellis. It has worked magnificently for growing string beans. In the spring when I was reading about how to grow green beans, I kept seeing that they do well on trellises, so my husband made me one for my plants. I picked from a variety of plants so I’d have a mix of at least three beans for my salad. I am going to share with you what I came up with in case you, too, can’t stand that Dilly Bean recipe anymore.įirst, I began in the garden. This classic recipe called for different kinds of beans than the ones I grew as well as some ingredients I didn’t have at hand so I modified it a little. ![]() ![]() In my Ball Blue Book: Guide To Preserving, I found a recipe for 3-bean salad. When I picked my most recent harvest, I just couldn’t stand the thought of another round of Dilly Beans so I went in search of something new to make. My bean plants have been growing splendidly this year, which means I have made my Dilly Bean recipe more times than I can count.
