Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out one sheet of puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard evenly across the surface.
Layer half of the sliced pastrami evenly over the mustard, followed by 3 slices of Swiss cheese.
Roll out the second sheet of puff pastry and carefully place it on top of the layered ingredients. Press the edges together to seal.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the layered pastry into 1-inch-wide strips. Twist each strip gently and place it onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between strips for expansion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush it over each pastry twist for a golden finish.
Sprinkle poppy seeds over the top of the twists if desired for added texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the twists are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Pastrami Yum Yums!
