(Narragansett Ind., msickquatash corn boiled whole.) Green Indian corn and beans boiled together. It is a favorite disk wherever these plants are cultivated.
Joel Barlow, in his admirable poem on Hasty-pudding, thus compares succotash with it:
Let the green succotash with thee contend;
Let beans and corn their sweetest juices lend;
Not all the plate, how fam'd soe'er it be,
Can please my palate like a bowl of thee.--Canto I. p. 6.
