Ika Sansai is a chilled Japanese salad made from sliced boiled squid (ika) and sansai (edible mountain vegetables) such as warabi (bracken), zenmai (fern shoots), and bamboo shoots, all marinated in a light soy-based dressing with hints of vinegar, sesame oil, and mirin. Served cold, this dish is popular as a small plate or side dish in izakayas, sushi restaurants, and bento boxes. It offers a refreshing contrast of chewy, tender squid and crisp, earthy greens with a savory-tangy flavor profile.
