Trim the stem ends and cut into 1\u20132 inch pieces if desired, or leave them whole.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prepare the Jars<\/strong><br \/>\nWash pint jars, lids, and bands. Keep the jars hot until ready to fill.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pack the Jars<\/strong><br \/>\nPack the green beans tightly into the hot jars. Add \u00bd teaspoon canning salt to each pint, if using.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add Water<\/strong><br \/>\nPour hot water over the beans, leaving 1 inch of headspace. Remove any air bubbles, adjust the headspace if needed, and wipe the jar rims clean.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seal the Jars<\/strong><br \/>\nPlace the lids on the jars and screw on the bands until fingertip tight.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pressure Can<\/strong><br \/>\nProcess pint jars in a pressure canner at <strong>10 pounds pressure for 20 minutes<\/strong> (dial-gauge canners) or follow your canner manufacturer&#8217;s instructions and adjust the pressure for your altitude.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cool and Store<\/strong><br \/>\nAllow the pressure canner to depressurize naturally.

Check that the seals are secure, label the jars, and store them in a cool, dark place.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>To Serve<\/h2>\n<p>Drain the green beans and heat them with butter, salt, and pepper.
