I had about 7 oz homegrown green beans and wanted to try some pickled green beans. Instead of canning these, I just did them as refrigerator pickles. I cut the recipe to a quarter (2 jars) but added a little extra garlic and dill and boiled the beans for 5 minutes instead of steaming. Two days after making they are very good and I'm sure will only get better in the coming days! Thanks for sharing!
