Directions:
Break the beans, about an inch long. Wash beans. Drain water, place beans in a dish pan. Cover with water, set on stove, let boil until beans change color. Add teaspoon of salt in each jar. Take a teacup and dip beans into jar - pack tight up to the neck of jar ensuring the water covers the beans. Place the lid tightly on the jar.

Add 2 quarts of water to pressure cooker. Place jars in pressure cooker, 7 quart jars at a time, between medium to high heat. Put lid on pressure cooker, the steam will begin to come out of the top of cooker. Then place the steam gauge on top of the cooker where steam is coming out and let the pressure go up to ten pounds. Be sure and watch and do not allow to go over 10 pounds. Once it reaches 10 pounds cook for 35 minutes (may have to turn heat down). Take cooker off of stove. Let cool until pressure goes down to zero, then open cooker and take jars out. Take a towel and tighten lids securely. They will eventually pop when they seal (as they cool down). Repeat.
