In Lost Ark, the Balankar Ranger's Salad is one of the special dishes featured in North Vern's Adventurer's Tome. It only takes one item in order to craft, but the location of that item is in a seemingly unsuspicious location.
Once you find that item, you'll also need 900 Silver to craft the salad itself once you return to Stelia the cook in Vern Castle.
Where to find the Vine for Balankar Ranger's Salad
The search text for the Vine mentions that it can be found in a damp part of the Vine Grove. However, we saw nothing that would make the location where the Vine is found appear damp.

From the Parna's Sanctum Triport, exit the safe zone to the East and hug the right wall. Towards the end of the upward slope, you'll randomly find the spot to harvest Vines from.
We'd recommend that you harvest two vines while you're here. You'll need a second Balankar Ranger's Salad to craft the Long Live the Queen! dish, so you may as well grab the materials for a second salad now.
