Pastrami
Pastrami (Romanian: ''pastramă'') is a food originating from Romania usually made from beef brisket, lamb, pork, chicken sometimes from turkey. The raw meat is brined, partially dried, seasoned with herbs and spices, then smoked and steamed. Like corned beef, pastrami was originally created as a way to preserve meat before the invention of refrigeration. One of the iconic meats of Romanian cuisine as well as American Jewish cuisine and the New York City cuisine, hot pastrami is typically served at delicatessen restaurants on sandwiches such as the pastrami on rye. Etymology and origin The name pastrami comes from Romanian ''pastramă'', which is related to the Turkish ''pastırma''. It is probably derived from the Turkish verb '' bastırmak'' meaning "to press". However, it could also be from the Romanian '' a păstra'' meaning "to keep, preserve". Both of these etymologies are plausible, but mutually exclusive. Wind-dried beef had been made in Anatolia for centuries, and Byz ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Huns
The Huns were a nomadic people who lived in Central Asia, the Caucasus, and Eastern Europe between the 4th and 6th century AD. According to European tradition, they were first reported living east of the Volga River, in an area that was part of Scythia at the time; the Huns' arrival is associated with the migration westward of an Iranian people, the Alans.
