A dense bun ground from corn, cassava or potato, wrapped in leaves — usually corn husks, tied at each end — and boiled until it sets into a firm, faintly sweet block that slices cleanly. Sold by street vendors, in shops and in supermarkets, it is eaten mostly at breakfast as an accompaniment to fresh cheese. Related wrapped-and-boiled corn preparations exist across the continent under other names.
