Easy to follow recipe 🙂 I made about three weeks ago and totally forgot about them. They've been sat marinating in their jars for around 3 weeks, unrefrigerated. Will they be safe to eat?

I live in Montreal. Where can I get these beans dry? I've been to Portuguese stores but they only have them already made in jars.
