Pastrami is meat baked in a lot of spices with garlic. The texture is very tender and juicy, the taste is spicy. The peculiarity of cooking such meat is that it must be soaked in a salt solution before baking. This helps to prevent the fibers from drying out and falling apart. Turkey is best suited for such a technique.

The idea for turkey pastrami is published on the Instagram page of food blogger Daria with the nickname recepti_dariko. A delicious crust of spices forms on top.
