Siŭijŏnsŏ () is a Korean cookbook that is believed to have been compiled in the late 19th century. The author is unknown but is assumed to be a lady of the yangban (nobility during the Joseon period) class in Sangju, North Gyeongsang Province.

In 1919, Sim Hwanjin was appointed as the governor of Sangju and became acquainted with a local yangban family. After borrowing a cookbook from the family, Sim transcribed its contents and then gave the newly bound book to his daughter-in-law, Hong Chŏng.
