In Mexico you can buy these on just about every street corner. They are usually round slices heavily laden with chili. Very refreshing. When you buy a Jicama make sure it is very firm and free from mold patches. When you slice it open the flesh must be white otherwise it is too old. This is a very low calorie recipe, it fact it is low everything!

What a healthy, unique treat! Pretty much everyone who likes jicama who tried it prepared this way, liked it a lot. Those who didn't care for it, don't like jicama period.Reply

Fantastic! I had this for the first time a couple of years ago. The only change I've made is that I do not drain the lime juice off. I liked some of the ideas from other reviewers of additional spices or a touch of sugar. I'll try that next time. I've read in the past that the smaller the jicama the sweeter and I know when they're bigger they start to get woody so I always buy the smallest ones I can find. Thanks for posting, Bergy, I have this all the time.Reply
