  1. There is no difference.  Kishke means stuffed derma.

    The Jewish (specifically Ashkenazi) kishke is traditionally made from a roasted fowl intestines with a seasoned filling of matzo meal and suet .

    The Yiddish translation for kishke is intestine.

    The cooked kishke can range in color from grey-white to brownish-orange, depending on how much paprika is used. In recent times edible synthetic casings often replace the beef intestines; home cooks also often use kosher poultry neck skin to stand in for the intestine.

    Hope this helps.


  2. Since I'm definitely not an expert in Russian (and Jewish/Kosher?) and eastern European foods, I will leave it to the experts:

    "...One item often added to cholent is kishka (kosher stuffed derma) or helzeleh. Kishka is a type of kosher sausage stuffed with a flour mixture that includes beef, chicken, or goose fat, fried onions, spices, and possibly mashed vegetables (mainly carrots and potatoes). Traditionally, kishka was made with intestinal lining from a cow. Today, the casing is often edible sausage casings no different than that used in salami or hot dogs."

    The following links will give you a good idea of what those delicious sounding foods are.

    Bon appetite!
