Pastrami and corned beef are preserved meats made from beef, usually brisket to be exact. Both pastrami and corned beef are sliced and served at delis and sandwich shops. But there is one key difference to these similar Jewish deli meats: pastrami is smoked and corned beef is not smoked. The cuts of meat are also different. Both are delicious eaten alone, but they are also popularly enjoyed as the meaty base for iconic sandwiches.

Light, airy, and delicious custard-filled Boston cream donuts are a classic dessert for a reason. A soft tender yeasted donut filled with creamy custard is perfect to enjoy with a cup of coffee or black tea. And nothing beats a freshly-made version, with vanilla bean-infused milk in the pastry cream and a velvety dark chocolate ganache on top. The combination of a pillowy, sweet donut and luscious vanilla custard creates a dessert that is both rich and light at the same time.
