FAQs about pastrami
Corned beef originates from Ireland, while pastrami hails from Turkey and Romania, but they both use the same brine. Corned beef and pastrami can also be made from beef brisket, although pastrami is sometimes made from turkey, pork, or lamb. Different spices are used to flavor the two types of meat. They are also cooked differently, with pastrami being smoked and baked, while corned beef is boiled.
Salami comes from Italian roots, whereas pastrami has Turkish and Romanian origins. The two types of meat are also prepared differently. Salami is meat and seasonings stuffed into a casing, then fermented and cured before air drying. Pastrami is brined, cured, smoked, and baked. Both pastrami and salami are cured meats, which is about the only similarity.
For deli-style pastrami, you'll want to first check the sell-by date on the package. Pre-packaged and deli-counter lunch meats are required to have a sell-by date, and it's best to eat the meat within seven to 10 days of that date. Once the package has been opened, you should eat the meat within five days. Slimy meat, or meat with mold growth, should be thrown away and not consumed. If your deli meat smells off or smells like ammonia, yeast, or vinegar, you should also throw it out.
