Description

The name of the dish actually comes from the Georgian word for beans — "lobio." This dish is an excellent option for fasting. Ideally, red lobio isn't made with regular beans but with a specific type of bean known as hyacinth beans, named for their distinctive coloring. You can also prepare lobio using green string beans. Keep in mind that the beans should remain whole in the finished dish. To prepare red lobio properly, the beans must be cooked correctly: soak them beforehand for about 12 hours, change the water three times during cooking, and boil for approximately 1 hour. For convenience, you can use canned beans, as in this version.
