How to Make Sweet Dilly Beans And Carrots

  1. Trim the ends of the green beans to fit lengthwise into the pint jars.
  2. Peel and cut the carrots into 2-inch sticks, similar in size to the beans.
  3. In a large saucepan, combine the green beans and carrots.
  4. Add 2 cups of boiling water to the saucepan, ensuring the vegetables are partially submerged.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
  6. Reduce heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 10-15 minutes.
  7. Drain the beans and carrots thoroughly.
  8. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, vinegar, 2 cups of water, and the dill.
  9. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  10. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
  11. Pack the beans and carrots lengthwise into the sterilized pint jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace at the top.
  12. Carefully pour the hot sugar-vinegar mixture over the beans and carrots, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
  13. Remove any air bubbles by running a non-metallic utensil around the inside of the jars.
  14. Wipe the jar rims clean with a damp cloth.
  15. Place the lids and rings on the jars, tightening them fingertip tight.
  16. Place the filled jars on a rack in a large pot or canner.
  17. Add enough hot water to cover the jars by at least 1 inch.
  18. Bring the water to a rolling boil, then process for 20 minutes.
  19. Carefully remove the jars from the canner and let them cool completely on a towel-lined surface.
  20. Check the seals. The lids should have popped down and sealed tightly. If not, refrigerate and consume sooner.
