This soft and moist Cherokee bread is nothing like you've tasted before, and it resembles a dumpling rather than a common bread. This recipe uses two staple ingredients of Cherokee cuisine, namely corn and beans. You might find corn flour under the name masa harina, but pay attention: this is not cornstarch. While the flour is yellow, the starch is white.
The recipe calls for the use of corn husks. Since finding those may be difficult, you can swap them with aluminum foil strips.
