Description
Sea pastirma, often referred to as “sea pastrami,” is a Mediterranean delicacy made from fish, typically mackerel or bonito, that has been cured and then packed in oil.The fish is salted and sometimes seasoned with spices before being air-dried, which helps to enhance its flavor and preserve it. The oil helps keep the fish moist and adds richness, while the curing process gives it a unique, savory flavor.Serve it on a platter with olives, cheese, and crusty bread as part of a mezze spread.Incorporate into salads for a flavorful boost, pairing well with ingredients like tomatoes, cucumbers, and herbs.Add to pasta dishes for a smoky, savory flavor. Toss with olive oil, garlic, and vegetables.Use as a filling for sandwiches or wraps, often paired with fresh greens and a light dressing.
