Nutritionally there is no difference between these two types of salt. Kosher salt is a larger grain type of salt; it is certified Kosher and can be used to prepare meals, for home canning and can be ground to be used as a table salt.

Most salt, by default is kosher unless something is added to it that makes it not kosher, such as flavourings. If you're referring to koshering salt, the only difference is that it's a larger granule than table salt and it doesn't always have iodine added.
