Lupin bean
Lupin or lupini beans are the yellow legume seeds of ''Lupinus'' genus and are a traditional food of the Mediterranean basin (''L. albus'') and Latin America (''L. mutabilis''). They are traditionally eaten as a pickled snack food, primarily in the Mediterranean and South America. The earliest archaeological reports on lupins are referred to the XII dynasty of Egyptian Pharaohs (over 2 thousand years BCE). In their tombs, seeds of Lupinus digitatus Forsk., already domesticated in those times, were discovered. Seven seeds of this species were also retrieved in the tombs of this dynasty dated back to the 22nd century BCE. They are the most ancient evidence of lupin in the Mediterranean (Zhukovsky, 1929). The bitter variety of the beans are high in alkaloids and are extremely bitter unless rinsed for a long time.
==History and distribution==
Lupini were popular with the Romans, who spread their cultivation throughout the Roman Empire. Today, lupini are most commonly found in Mediterranean countries and their former colonies, especially in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, and Brazil, as well as Egypt (where it is part of Sham El Nessim holiday meals), Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan, Israel, Turkey, Chicago's Little Italy, and in New York City's Spanish Harlem, where they are popularly served with beer. In Portuguese, lupini beans are known as ''tremoços'', and in Spain and Argentina they are called ''altramuz'' (both names are derived from Arabic الترمس ''al-turmus''). In Antalya Province, Turkey they are known as ''tirmis'' and in Konya Province, Turkey they are known as ''termiye''.
