Definition

Noun: 1. A traditional Jewish dish: A food item consisting of seasoned poultry intestines (typically from a chicken or goose) that are cleaned, stuffed with a filling, and then roasted. The stuffing is primarily made from matzo meal (unleavened bread crumbs) and suet (hard animal fat), seasoned with ingredients like onions, pepper, and spices.

Usage
  • This term specifically refers to the prepared food dish. It is a cultural and culinary term.
  • It is often served as part of holiday meals, particularly on Passover, due to the use of matzo meal.
  • Example: "For the Seder dinner, my grandmother always prepares her famous stuffed derma."
Advanced Usage
  • The dish is known for its rich, savory flavor and is considered a comfort food in Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine.
  • Preparation is time-consuming, involving cleaning the intestines, preparing the stuffing, and slow roasting.
Variants and Related Words
  • Kishke: This is the more common Yiddish name for the same dish. "Stuffed derma" is the direct English translation.

Notes on Different Meanings
  • The word "derma" alone can refer to the inner layer of skin in a medical or biological context (the dermis). However, in the compound term "stuffed derma," it specifically uses an older or dialectal meaning referring to intestine or gut casing used as sausage skin.
  • CRITICAL NOTE: "Stuffed derma" is a fixed compound noun referring to the specific dish. The word "derma" by itself is not used in modern English to mean "intestine." Do not use "derma" alone to refer to food or intestines.
Noun
  1. (Judaism) roasted fowl intestines with a seasoned filling of matzo meal and suet
