My husband is an almost-vegetarian who's grossed out by organ meats. I convinced him to try a mock (vegetarian) kishke recipe I got from a relative and he loves it. The problem is that the word "kishke" still grosses him out, even when I call it "mock kishke" or "vegetarian kishke". He wants to know how to say "baking parchment" (what I wrapped it in to cook) in Yiddish, and I don't know any fluent Yiddish speakers IRL.
Help please? Anon because I'm slightly embarrassed and this came up at lunch today at someone else's house.

I agree that the translation of Baking paper is Bak papier, but it is not at all synonymous with the word 'kishka'..
EDA; Many refer kishka to Geknetten kigel (kneaded kugel)

Kishke, the dish made of flour, fat and spices stuffed in a casing, is called "stuffed derma" in English, presumably because the term "stuffed bovine intestinal membrane" is too long and too graphic for most. Though "derma" means "skin", which is not all that much more appealing IMO, maybe most people who eat stuffed derma don't know that.

It's probably similar to helzel, no?

I've heard kishke referred to as both helzel and geknaytene kigel.

My husband calls vegetarian kishka, meyl kigel. Cuz only actual stuffed intestines should be allowed to be called kishka.

Lol NOO
Originally that's where the names come from.
Open a history book, my dear. Biased or unbiased, sometimes facts are just facts.
