Lobio () is a traditional Georgian dish of various kinds of prepared beans (cooked or stewed), also containing coriander, walnuts, garlic and onion. There are many varieties of lobio, both hot and cold.
==History== It is said to have originated in Georgia. While the dish may predate any division of the lands into countries, the most popular variant today uses red kidney beans, which are native to the Americas and introduced into Georgia after 1500. As with many Georgian dishes, lobio is spicy, but not necessarily hot. One of the traditional recipes for lobio does not call for hot peppers (as other recipes do) but relies solely on ground black pepper for its spice.
