This has been cooked for 100's of years used by the natives,

Native Americans developed all the major lineages of corn--flint, dent, sweet, flour, and pop--by the time Columbus arrived in the New World. Settlers
adopted and continued the hybridization of corn, and pushed natives into increasingly marginal lands.
Two hundred-sixty years after the Powhatan saved the settlers of Jamestown, the Mennonites settlers came to North America bringing Turkey red wheat,
the first wheat capable of growing on the open plains. (See Plants that Changed History, September 11, 2001) Although prairie soils were deep and
rich, they were often too dry or cold for corn. Being grasses, neither corn nor wheat need pollinators; these plants are dependent upon the wind.
