Love dill beans... we also use the yellow wax beans, as they seem more firm and crispy. You can also make them spicy by adding some jalapeno. Delicious. - 8/23/11

I have a recipe for Dilly Beans that I have made for years. If you place the jar of beans in a hot water bath the will keep much longer. Go to the Blue Ball canning website and you will find a lot of really great recipes. - 8/7/12

This isn't fresh, but what I do is take canned green beans and throw them in with dill pickles or juice that is left over. Easy, quick, simple. I'll have to try this recipe sometime. - 8/5/12

Have looked for a recipe like this for several years! Farmers Market in Santa Barbara sells beans similar to these for $7.99 per 8 oz. jar! Thanks! - 8/30/11
