July 3, 2024 • 21 mins

What makes American-Jewish pastrami different from other deli meats? How does it compare with its European precursors? How did the delicatessen embody the American-Jewish experience?

This episode's guest is Ted Merwin. (Full Episode Notes available at https://www.tasteofjew.com/podcasts/)
