- Wash, trim ends and unzip strings as needed. Sort for size and maturity; some may be packed whole and upright like asparagus; others may be cut slanted in 1-inch pcs.
- In large kettle of water at 170 degrees, place blanching basket or possibly loosely tied cheesecloth bag of prepared beans and slow-cook for 5 min after water returns to temperature. Remove beans and pack into warm, clean jars leaving 1/2-inch headroom. Add in salt if you like.
- While packing beans into jars, bring water you used to blanch beans to boil. Pour boiling liquid over beans in jars, leaving 1/2-inch headroom. Remove trapped air with slender plastic spatula. Adjust warm lids; process at 10 pounds pressure for 25 min, beginning timing when canner indicates it has achieved pressure.
- Remove from canner according to canner's manual. Place jars on dish towels on counter and let cold. Test for proper seals by pushing down on flat part of each lid; if lid pops back, seal isn't complete. Either place in refrigerator and eat soon, or possibly reseal according to manual instructions.
