How would you describe the taste of pastrami? I’ve never had it before.
It is essentially spiced and smoked corned beef, which changes the texture to a more solid, less stringy consistency. he leaner part of the brisket is the traditional cut used.
Slightly salty, spicy-smoky beef, a bit on the chewy side. Typically sliced & steamed to serve hot; or sliced cold for sandwiches. Mustard and/or horseradish are a must condiment for it.
Extremely delicious; the Jews who invented it knew what they were doing.
