Directions for Green Beans, Carrots or Cauliflower Marinated in Dill Recipe

If using green beans, snip ends from beans and wash thoroughly; leave whole or cut in half if long.
In a large pan bring the 2 quarts water to boil; add the vegetable of your choice and 1 tablespoon of the salt.
Let water return to a boil and cook veggies, uncovered until veggies are fork tender but still brightly colored (about 3 minutes for cauliflower, 5 minutes for beans or 7 minutes for carrots).
Drain immediately and cool.
Pack veggies into a refrigerator container, and add mustard seed, dill weed, chiles, dill seed and garlic.
Bring to a boil the 2 cups water, wine or vinegar, sugar and remaining 2 tablespoons salt; pour over veggies.
Cool, cover and chill overnight or as long as 2 weeks.
