• Flip the potatoes and cook until a crust forms on the other side, about 5 more minutes. Sprinkle with the kosher salt and garlic, and remove the skillet from heat. Let cool to room temperature.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the mayo, miso and seasoned rice vinegar. Fold in the potatoes and Œ cup scallions. Chill 1 hour. Drizzle with the sesame oil and top with additional scallions to serve.
*Any miso will work well, but Bulrush uses a house-made roasted potato miso available for purchase on its curbside carryout menu. bulrushstl.com
