South Korea Sausage

Sundae (pronounced "soon-dae") is commonly described as a "noodle and vegetable" sausage, though it has different forms in different places. In Sokcho, for example, a city on the east coast where I lived for about 5 months, it incorporates squid.

I usually refer to this type of sausage as "blood sausage", since that is what it looks like.

The pictures here are of a North Korean variety of the sausage, which has rice in it (never happens in South Korea that I know of) and therefore has a softer texture. It is, however, spicier.

We were able to sample this type of sausage through the generosity of some of the North Korean immigrants who live in the Seoul area.
