Staff note :

The certification committee doesn't think this recipe is a safe vinegar brine recipe. It seems like you did it during the PTJ event, along with other recent posters.  Please double check your notes and verify if this was the recipe you used.  You can use the "edit" function which is hidden behind the (...) button at the top of the post you want to edit.

I made two quarts of beet/thyme vinegar brine then water bath canned them.

3 large beets
A few sprigs of fresh thyme
2 cups beet water
2 cups apple cider vinegar
1 tbs of sugar
1tbs of salt

I simmered the beets until tender, made a brine with the rest of the ingredients and water bath canned the two quart jars for 18 minutes.

Staff note :

Benton, Thank you for your patience.  The BB committee is pondering what "finished" means.  If you have a photo of the seals showing a vacuum (the button down) and add it (use the three-dot button to reveal the edit button), then I can certify while we continue the discussion.

Benton, in case you missed the staff note on your post (I don't think you get email notifications for those, sadly!), it asks, "Benton, Thank you for your patience.

My green beans are producing a nice crop, but I'm not a huge fan of eating them stir fried, steamed, or boiled - but I do enjoy them pickled, so I pickled a batch of two quarts.

I pickled and canned 6 1/2 pints of onions, carrots, and jalapeños. I started with this recipe as a concept but it’s just a quick pickle so to figure out how to can it, I looked at NCHFP, here and here.

Yum! I have to wait a few days for flavor to develop, but these will be great.

   - Post/link recipe you used
1) put veggies and herbs in to your hearts content (celery, carrot, green tomatoes, onion, garlic, dill, jalepeno, cauliflower)
2) boil water, vinegar and salt together (1:3 ratio vinegar to water with 1 tablespoon of salt)
3) fill jars and put lid on
   - Post picture of vegetables being prepared (washed, cut up)
   - Post picture of jar/s being filled
   - Post picture of jar going into or coming out of the bath
     this recipe doesn't need to go into the bath, since you dump the water and vinegar in while boiling and put the lids on immediately, it has the same effect and a seal is created as it cools.
   - Post picture of finished product/jar
