About Georgian Recipes
Georgian Recipes is a project of Georgia About, a registered not-for-profit organization in Georgia that undertakes research and promotion of Georgian culture, cuisine, tourism and heritage within Georgia and internationally.
Georgian Recipes aims to promote and preserve Georgia’s rich culinary heritage. All of the dishes shown on the website have been prepared by a Georgian cook using traditional recipes and are presented in a step-by-step way so that you too can enjoy authentic Georgian cuisine.
Georgian cuisine refers to the cooking styles and dishes with origins in the country of Georgia. Each historical province of Georgia has its own distinct culinary tradition, for example Megrelian, Kakhetian, Ajarian and Imeretian cuisines. We post recipes for well known national and regional dishes as well as less known traditional dishes and popular everyday family meals.
Food is an integral part of Georgia’s famed hospitality, which is particularly demonstrated in feasts called supra, where a huge assortment of dishes is prepared and always accompanied by large amounts of wine, and often lasting for hours.
We hope that you enjoy our supra!

Thanks for this lovely introduction to Georgian cuisine. It has absolutely sparkes my interest in visiting Georgia one day.
All the best from The Netherlands!
Hi Susanna. Thank you for your lovely comments. I am delighted that you like the recipes and have successfully tried several. You must visit Georgia! 🙂
Hi there,
We’re living in Georgia right now and would like to try out some of these recipes while the right ingredients are available. However, I can’t figure out some of the spice names in Georgian. We want to start with the lobio recipe and I don’t know how to ask for fenugreek. Coriander is ქინძი, right? If you know of a page that lists most of the necessary spices in both English and Kartuli, or could make one… 🙂 that would be very helpful.
We published a post on spices and herbs used in Georgian cooking: https://georgianrecipes.net/2013/07/28/spices-and-herbs-used-in-georgian-cuisine/
Was recently introduced to Georgian cuisine and I am in love! Please recommend a brand of Ajika that I can buy online. Many recipes seem to require it. Thank you!
I am not sure that is it readily available. We have a recipe for it on this website. You could make your own 🙂
Hello, i am trying to get in Israel the Marigold/Clendula powder. Please let me know about a site that i can order.
Thanks in advance
