I found this post looking for info on using lazy housewife beans for soup/shelly beans. I've eaten my share off the vine and think they're great, but since they're so productive, I think I may just have enough to dry so I can keep enjoying them after the plants are back in the ground. Lazy Housewifes and Blue Lake Pole were my first attempt at pole beans this summer, rabbits obliterated the Blue Lake, but didn't do any lethal damage to the LHs. I swear, if I stretched the vines from end to end they'd be well over 10 feet and growing. From now on it's LH for me, too! Yay beans!

Voila', bright green. Then I put them into the nearly empty jar of "Spicy Dilly Bean Juice" I'd just eaten the beans from over the last few days and have a strong hunch that they will 'dilly up' in the course of a few days in the cold, dill brine. For keeping into winter . . . the tried and true water bath makes great sense, but for summer, fresh, bright green "Dilly's" that will be eaten within a week or so, methinks a quick blanch and then a refrigerator cold dill brine will be far more aesthetically pleasing. It only took sliced red bell peppers about a day and a half to go "Dilly-icious" this way. I'll let ya' know.

I LOVE it. And, I love all the Bean talk. I'm hooked on growing beans as well. I planted the Tri-color Pole Beans from Renee's Garden. The best beans I've tasted in a long time.
