This was a very good salad. I enjoyed the smooth mango alongside the crunch of the jicama and radishes. Later I added a few fresh garden strawberries to the mix, and they also went really well in the salad. The only thing I would do differently next time is omit the shallot, as I thought it overpowered the dressing and was very potent. Thanks so much!
