Gourdseed corn was popular, prior to the American Civil War, stone ground into cornmeal to make cornbread. It fell out of favor to dent corns which could be milled into either grits or cornmeal. It's whole kernel cornmeal is a little bit like wheat flour and it makes a flavorful cornbread, with a texture that begins to feel almost like cake.

It was sometimes referred by the Indians as tooth corn, and got either name because of the shape of it's kernels. Either it's similarity to a gourd's seed, or to rows of kernels that look like teeth.
