(Not) Japanese Potato Salad

Serves: 2-4, Preparation time: 15 minutes, Resting time: 1 hour, Cooking time: 20 minutes

Three things make this Japanese-inspired potato salad sing. First, warm potatoes tossed in a mixture of rice wine vinegar, neutral oil and maple syrup with plenty of finely chopped spring onion stirred through to infuse the potatoes as they rest and cool. The second thing is that finely chopped spring onion which adds pungency without astringency to cut through the rich mayo. The third, is, of course, the uniquely umami character of Kewpie mayonnaise which is what makes this potato salad not just another potato salad. Try it, and there will be no going back.
