Zydeco Green Beans

[carnie1]

This is a basic recipe, I have messed with it all different ways , this time I used a Hawaiian sea salt and a little ghost pepper instead of what recipe says, Beware, they are addicting , Ask Nepa's
Hot and Spicy Haricot Beans
Or, Zydeco Beans

2 cups water
3/4 cup white vinegar
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp mustard seeds, crushed (Use mortar and pestle or small coffee
grinder=
reserved for herbs and spices.)
4 garlic cloves, crushed, peeled, minced
4 bay leaves, broken
2 tsp salt
1 tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste)
1 lb green beans (haricots), trimmed

Combine ingredients except beans in a large sauce pan and bring to a boil
over high heat (break up bay leaves).
Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes.
Add beans and simmer, covered, 8 to 10 minutes, until beans are cooked but
still crisp. Transfer beans and liquid to a shallow serving dish and
refrigerate
covered=
4 hours, or overnight.
Remove bay leaves and discard.
Serve cold or at room temperature.

I use a canning jar and pour all the liquid in

I think this is like a good dry martini.  All you have to do is mention "vermouth" and all is good.  Must be the same way with the beans.  You mentioned the "word" (don't want to overdue it), so all is covered.
