1
Prepare the Octopus
In a large pot, bring water to a rolling boil. Add the octopus and boil for about 30-40 minutes, or until tender. Remove from water and let cool.
2
Slice the Octopus
Once cooled, slice the octopus into thin rounds and set aside.
3
Make the Dressing
In a mixing bowl, combine rice vinegar, soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, and red chili flakes. Mix well to create the dressing.
4
Prepare the Vegetables
Thinly slice the scallions and cucumber. Place them in a separate bowl.
5
Combine Ingredients
In a larger bowl, combine the sliced octopus, scallions, and cucumber. Pour the dressing over the mixture and toss gently to coat all ingredients.
6
Season
Taste the mixture and add salt as necessary. Adjust the seasoning with more red chili flakes if desired.
7
Chill and Serve
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve cold as an appetizer or side dish.
