"This is like a dense biscuit. Native women would use plants including cattails, acorns, beans, chestnuts, or quinoa to make the flour, then the bread would be mixed with salt and water and baked over a fire. The modern version uses wheat flour and an oven. The northwest native Americans( Makahs) eat this with soup."
