Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home Preservation of Fruits and Vegetables To prepare beans for canning, wash freshly picked beans thoroughly, remove strings and break in desired lengths. Avoid using old beans or any with blemishes as this frequently causes cans to spoil. Tie the beans in a cheese cloth bag and blanch from five to eight minutes in boiling water. Remove and plunge in cold water. Pack in glass jars up to the neck; fill to overflowing with hot water and add one-half teaspoon of salt to one pint jar. Place rubbers and tops on jars but do not clamp top down. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
