Crunchy, refreshing Jicama Salad is a perfect accompaniment to Mexican dishes.
Are you familiar with jicama?
Jicama salads are usually prepared with julienned jicama a little thicker than what I have shown here.

The good news is cut this way the salad will be easier to eat.
Julienne or cube the jicama into pieces you are most comfortable eating.
There is enough fat in the main dish to balance the acidity in the salad.

Tip: It’s easiest to julienne or cubed jicama if you cut it in half first.
Pour lime juice over all.
Sprinkle with a pinch of cayenne and paprika.

Season generously with salt.
Let sit a half an hour before serving.
