Pupusa (Stuffed Corn Flatbread Griddled on a Comal)
El Salvador's national dish: a thick corn flatbread stuffed with cheese and beans and griddled on a comal. Masa has no gluten. A seam that splits is usually answered with pleats, and masa cannot be pleated, since it tears rather than stretches. So a pupusa is closed as a ball and then flattened, leaving no seam to split.
