Soseji is the Korean word for sausage, often referring to a variety of processed or cooked sausages used in Korean home-style dishes, lunchboxes (dosirak), or street food. Unlike Western sausages, Korean soseji is typically mildly seasoned, slightly sweet, and has a soft, bouncy texture — perfect for quick frying or stir-frying.
