Why Pastrami?
Pastrami β from the Yiddish pastrame, borrowed from Romanian pastramΔ. Cured, spiced, smoked beef β the heart of the NYC Jewish deli. Brought to America by Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe in the late 1800s.
The word itself is a journey β Romania to Eastern Europe to Ellis Island to Katz's Deli on Houston Street.
Origami is the Japanese art of folding paper into shapes. We fold pastrami the same way β with intention, with precision, with respect for the craft.
Two cultures. One plate. Forty-eight hours of smoke.
