This article examines the types and cooking methods of Soondae (Korean Traditional Sausage) as recorded in 12 books of the Joseon dynasty (1392-1909). The ingredients used in Soondae during the Joseon dynasty were dog meat, beef, pork, lamb, and fish. There were no recorded mentions of Soondae in the early Joseon dynasty, but by the middle period there were three different dishes recorded. By the late era of the Joseon dynasty that number had increased to twelve. During the middle era of the Joseon dynasty, one kind of Soondae was prepared using dog meat, one using beef, and one using pork. By the late Joseon dynasty, there were six types of Soondae prepared using beef. They also had three kinds of Soondae prepared using lamb and two using fish, one using pork by that time. The frequency of the Soondae ingredients during the Joseon dynasty in order were beef (46.7%), lamb (20%), pork (13.3%), fish (13.3%), and dog meat (6.7%). Further study will be conducted on recipes and ingredients recorded in these old books to develop a standardized recipe in order to make Soondae appealing to a global palate.

The standard cooking method of Soondae, a famous traditional sausage type food in Korea, was proposed and the applicability of porcine plasma and egg white as the substitute of the porcine blood was investigated for the improvement of off-flavor, rancidity, and acceptability of Soondae. Sensory evaluation suggested Soondae prepared with 15% porcine blood most preferred. The cooking yields, water absorption capacity and hardness of plasma and egg white added Soondae were decreased compared with those of original porcine blood Soondae. The overall results of sensory evaluation suggested the possibility of using porcine plasma or egg white as a substitute for the porcine blood in Soondae.
