1. pastraminoun

   A seasoned smoked cut of beef

2. Etymology: From pastrame, from pastrama. That word is probably from pastırma, a variation of bastırma, "dried meat", from root *bas-, to press; the other possible origin of the Romanian word is the παστώνω (pastono, "I salt"), from παστός (pastos, "sprinkled with salt", "salted"). The English spelling ending in -mi is probably from the influence of salami.
