2. In each jar, place: 1 garlic clove, 1 hot chili pepper, 2 sprigs of dill, 1/2 teaspoon peppercorns and 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds. Pack green beans into the jars so they are standing on their ends.

4. Cool to room temperature, and place lids and bands on jars. Store in refrigerator and eat within a couple of months.

note: use clean quart Mason jars, lids, rings.

What Green Chiles Can I Use For This Bloody Mary Mix?

• Jalapenos (fresh- be sure to fire-grill them for extra flavor) canned is fine too!
• Chipotle In Adobo Sauce (dried and smoked jalapenos in a can)
• Anaheim Chiles (fresh and again, be sure to fire-grill)
• Hatch Chiles (if using fresh see below how to grill step by step)

Fresh Hatch Chiles must be roasted to bring out their special flavor and taste, and to remove their tough outer skins.

Also, look for dried Hatch Chiles, they are shelf-stable for 12 months and can be ready to use in minutes. A quick toast in a pan, then soak in water, you have re-hydrated dried hatch chiles in minutes!

Another way to get Hatch Chiles year-round, is they are sold in cans in many grocery stores.
