In the arsenal of every hostess, there are sure to be a couple of worthy recipes with asparagus beans. But not everyone knows that this legume can be prepared for the winter, for example, pickled or frozen. In today's issue, we have green beans and preparations for the winter from this green bean.

Recipe #1

Marinated green beans extremely good as a side dish for various meat and fish dishes. You can also add it to stews, a variety of salads, light vegetable soups, omelettes and casseroles.

Only young beans with tender skin, without thick, coarse threads, are suitable for canning. From the amount of ingredients indicated in the recipe, 3 half-liter jars of pickled asparagus beans come out.

Pickled green beans for the winter

Ingredients:


  • Asparagus (green) beans - 0.5 kg,
  • Carrot -1 pc.,
  • Garlic 2-3 cloves,
  • Bay leaf 1-2 pcs.,
  • Black peppercorns,
  • Dill or parsley;

For marinade:

  • Water - 1 l,
  • Sugar - 3 tablespoons,
  • Salt - 2 tablespoons,
  • Vinegar 9% - 1/3 tbsp.

How to pickle asparagus beans for the winter:

Green beans are washed from dust and dirt, it is convenient to do this by placing it in a large container of water.


Now the most painstaking and long work lies ahead: it is necessary to cut off the ends from each pod. In addition, if the beans are very long and do not fit in jars, then also cut into pieces.


Asparagus beans are an extremely useful plant, but not in its raw form. The pheazin contained in the pods can cause poisoning of the body, so the beans must be subjected to heat treatment. Put the clean, chopped asparagus beans in a saucepan, pour boiling water over it, cover with a lid and send to cook over moderate heat for 10 minutes.


While the beans are on the stove, carefully wash the glass jars with soda. We boil metal caps for seaming in clean water for at least 5 minutes. Then carefully lay them out on a kitchen towel and let dry.

In each jar we put a sprig of parsley, a few peppercorns, garlic cloves. We cut the peeled carrots across into circles or cubes, and also place them in jars.


We drain the water from the boiled beans, and send the pods themselves to the jars after the other ingredients.


Let's prepare the marinade. Pour a liter of water into the pan, add bay leaf, salt and sugar, bring to a boil. Then pour vinegar into the boiling marinade and pour the contents of the jars.


The final stage of the whole process is the sterilization of pickled beans in jars. At the bottom of a large saucepan we place a towel folded in several layers, we put jars on it.


We cover each jar with a lid. Then carefully pour hot water into the pan over the “shoulders” of the cans and send it to medium heat. After boiling the contents of the pan, we reduce the fire. We sterilize half a liter jars of beans for 25 minutes. Then we roll up the lids and send them to the pantry for storage.


Ksenia told how to make pickled asparagus beans.

Recipe number 2

Green beans frozen for the winter are a very practical preparation. Green beans contain a fairly large amount of fiber and vitamins, which we lack so much in winter.

I propose to consider together the step-by-step process of freezing asparagus beans, as well as discuss what dishes can then be prepared from it. Many housewives freeze beans incorrectly, simply putting them in bags and sending them to the freezer. Such reserves can then be safely thrown away. The main mistake in freezing beans is the lack of heat treatment. The whole secret is in preliminary preparation with obligatory blanching.

Frozen string beans


For the freezing process, we need

Ingredients:

  • fresh unripe beans in pods,
  • salt,
  • water,
  • packages.

Cooking process:

Beans can be frozen in two ways.

First method.

Rinse the pods thoroughly under running water and get rid of dry unusable tips. We cut them, but not completely, and then we break them and tear them off, so it will be possible to capture the hard veins on the sides.

Cut into pieces and try to keep them the same length (3-4 cm). We put all the beans for blanks in one container.

In another saucepan, put water on the fire, wait for it to boil and add salt. We put salt to taste.

Drop the chopped green beans into boiling water.

Cook until cooked (this is 15-20 minutes) and recline in a colander. As a result, we get an already almost ready-made semi-finished product, after freezing it, you can immediately use it in dishes.

The second method is to blanch for 3-5 minutes. That is, we are preparing a semi-finished product, which, after consumption, still needs to be cooked.

To preserve the green color of the beans, it must be lowered into cold water after boiling water. Next, spread the pods on a towel to dry.

We lay out the beans in bags, forming a flat layer.

Put the bags on the freezer shelf.

Many are biased towards green beans. And in vain, one benefit for the body!

What to cook with string beans

There is a wide variety of frozen green bean dishes. They cook from it, casseroles, omelettes, just stew with vegetables.

I'll tell you about omelette with beans with the addition of cheese, which I cook for breakfast:

200 g frozen green beans lightly fried with a little oil. Beat 2-3 eggs, add 50 ml of milk, salt and spices to them. Pour the egg-milk mixture over the beans. Sprinkle grated cheese on top. Cover the omelet with a lid and simmer over low heat until cooked under the lid.

For a useful recipe for harvesting beans, we thank Anna Morgunova.
