>From the Turkish 'Pastrema,' where it flowed with the River Dunariya to >Romania, both names then morphing, to Pastrami and the Duna/Danube. It will be associated forever with New York's Jew's, whose deli's have treated the city with the delite for over a hundred years. The beef cuts are treated to an infusion of garlic, coriander, pepper, mustard and allspice, then roasted and steamed.
Turkey is close enough to the Nile's spice lands. Ireland's Kaltics bestowed corned beef on New Yorkers. The kati roll, better known as a 'wrap,' has now taken firm root in the West, with bread no longer an option at the very popular 'Chipotle Mexican' chain. Do I hear "give me a Katy" in the near future ! eric. ________________________________ From: Gabe Menezes <gabe.menez > then there's Calcutta's famous kati roll and my favourite murtabak, ..all very tasty but not a Sandwich and certainly not Sand Witches, as served recently in Madgao! My recently returned son from NYK says there ain't nothing like a NYK Deli Pastrami or Corned beef sandwich?
