Ingredients
- 200 g green beans
- 3 fresh dill sprigs
- 1 1/2 cups white vinegar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- Boil green beans in a pot of salted water for 4 min. Drain. Plunge into ice water until cold. Pat dry and then place in a glass bowl or jar along with dill.

- Pour vinegar mixture over beans. Let cool slightly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hrs, or overnight, before serving.
Tip
Quick pickles have a shorter shelf life than traditional ones: three to five days in the refrigerator, max!
