4. In a mixing bowl sift together the flour, salt and pepper. Add the melted chicken fat with the onions and the breadcrumbs and mix thoroughly.
5. Stuff each section of the casing loosely with this filling and sew the second end closed.
6. Rinse off any flour that adheres to the surface.
7. Immerse in boiling water for 5 minutes and then drain. (At this point the kishke is ready for use in cholent (see Recipe#269267 ).
