Asham (dessert)

Asham is a corn-based Caribbean dessert. It is thought to have originated in Africa, with the name ''asham'' derived from the Akan word ''o-sĭám'' meaning "parched and ground corn". Other names include Brown George (Jamaica), asham (Grenada), ashum (Antigua), sansam and chilli bibi (Trinidad), caan sham, casham and kasham (Belize).

It is made by shelling dry corn, parching it, and then grinding it finely. Salt or sugar can then be added to the mixture and it can be eaten dry or with water. Provided by Wikipedia
