Sundae (IPA[suntɛ]) is a Korean dish made generally by boiling or steaming cow or pig's intestines that are stuffed with various ingredients. It is a kind of blood sausage and believed to have been eaten for a long time. The recipes related to sunda can be found in Joseon cookbooks published in 19th century such as "Gyuhap chongseo" (규합총서) and "Siui jeonseo".[1]

Sundae can be made with seafood such as ojingeo sundae (오징어순대 squid sundae) and myeongtae sundae (명태순대 Alaska pollock sundae).[1]

The most common type of sundae is made of pig's intestines stuffed with cellophane noodles (dangmyeon), barley, and pork blood, although some variants also contain perilla leaves, scallions (pa), fermented soybean paste (doenjang), glutinous rice, kimchi, and soybean sprouts. It is a popular street food in South Korea.
