string beans can be put up in the same way. When you use them soak a short time in warm water ; then cook and season the same as fresh ones with the addition of a small bit of saleratus. STRING BEANS, Take them when young and tender, string; and cut as for the table, have water boiling with a little salt in, throw in a fewhandfuls of beans, let them boil up once, skim out in a common crock; when full pour on a cold brine precisely the same as for cucumber pickles
Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
