소세지, or sausage, is a type of processed meat that is typically made from ground meat, fat, and various seasonings. It can be made from different types of meat, including 돼지고기 (pork), 소고기 (beef), and 닭고기 (chicken). Sausages are often encased in a natural or artificial casing, which helps to hold the ingredients together and gives them their shape. In many cultures, 소세지 is a popular food item enjoyed in various forms, such as grilled, fried, or boiled. It can be served on its own or used as an ingredient in dishes like 파스타 (pasta) and 피자 (pizza). Sausages are also commonly found at barbecues and street food stalls, making them a favorite among many people.
