Instructions
Prepare your jars by washing them in warm, soapy water or run them through the dishwasher. Submerge them in hot simmering water until ready to use. Always use new snap lids and wash them also in warm, soapy water. Leave them in a bowl of hot water until ready to use.
In a large saucepan add in the vinegars, water and salt and bring to a boil. Stir to dissolve the salt.
In each jar add in the dill heads, garlic, peppercorns, mustard seed, celery seed and red pepper flakes. Pack in green beans as tightly as possible. Pour in hot brine and leave 1/2" head space. Remove any bubbles carefully with a knife. Wipe top and place lid and screw the band on fingertip tight only.
Process in a water bath for 10 min. or as per altitude.
