There's a Look in this Book feature on Amazon for this title. The author lists it as a refrigerated, not canned, item. That seems appropriate to me.

The green beans, the soy sauce, the ginger and the garlic are all low-acid. The oil speaks for itself. I would not risk processing this without verification/testing.

Well the author is a chef with no background in food science per her bio sooooo - without the oil? Maybe. But you are right that is is a cooking recipe, not a canning recipe.

Amounts are clearly made for fresh serving at a meal, not canning/preserving. So while the beans could be canned the rest would need to be added at serving time.

Convincing folks that things like this were never intended to be canned is a difficult lesson for them to accept.

There may be a similar approved recipe in one of the books but I don't know of one off hand.

Thanks Carol. :)

Never try to take a cooking recipe and invent your own canning recipe from it. There are reasons there are cooking recipes and canning recipes. They are not the same things.
