Freezing? How would you go about preparing this before Yontif? Can you freeze the cutlets in the dressing ? Can you prep the pastrami before Yontif and freeze? Thank you!

I would freeze cutlets in dressing and breaded possibly. Then fry. Pastrami should freeze well in the sauce.

Hi, i wasn`t able to find Italian dressing so i breaded it in eggs and spices and it was still delicious.
