Can you use regular salt rather than Kosher sale in a recipe?
Yes. "Kosher" salt is really a misnomer. Coarse salt was used to cure and preserve certain meats, by drawing out residual blood, part of the process of "koshering" meat. So it came to be known as "kosher" salt, when if anything it should be called "koshering" salt. But because kosher salt is like lots of regular salt crystals stuck together, if the recipe calls for regular salt you need to use less kosher salt, but if the recipe calls for kosher salt you will most likely wind up needing more regular salt if you don't have kosher salt handy.

What is the scientific name for kosher salt?
"Kosher salt" is chemically the same as regular table salt, sodium chloride. It's not that the salt itself is kosher (it is, but so is just about any pure table salt). It's really more "koshering salt" ... suitable for use in salting meat to make it kosher (by removing the blood). Kosher salt is usually physically, not chemically, different from regular table salt. The grains tend to be larger and in the form of flat flakes rather than tiny cubes. Kosher salt usually contains no additives such as iodine (regular table salt is often sold with added iodine, usually labelled "iodized salt").
