Yes! That’s also my favourite way to eat it! Though they also sell jicaletas here, which is a big slice that’s covered in some chili powder and chamoy and it’s really lovely too 😩
Chop it up into cubes, toss with cilantro, a little olive oil, chopped peppers, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste with diced mango and you got a mango-jicama salsa. I just made this to put on sauteed shrimp on top of lettuce.
Made a jicama, black bean and corn side dish just now. I added red onion, cilantro, salt & pepper, smoked paprika and a little cumin. Tossed it all with a cilantro lime dressing. It's amazing! My husband and I thought the jicama itself tasted like a mix between a potato, celery and apple.
When I am fortunate enough to find nice fresh jicama in my local grocery store, I often approach other customers and ask them if they have tried it! My main ways of eating it are raw, in salads and stir-fried in place of canned water chestnuts! (Being an older lady, I feel pretty safe in doing this!)
Haha....I found this video looking for uses of this as we got some here at the local food bank I work at! It's still "too strange" for a lot of our clients, but maybe this will help me guide them!
Thats cause you are supposed to eat some not one. Lol! You shouldnt eat the whole thing in a day. Thing is loaded with fiber so it will empty you out if you eat too much.
We slice them up and add lime, chili powder and a hint of salt IT'S SO GOOD
I just eat it straight away after peeling it. Sweet and refreshing

Great music, great video and I just bought one out of curiosity but didn't know what to do with it. Will give it a try in many ways! Thank you.
very informative video. ive seen onions be replaced with jicama in pico de gllo
I'd still keep the onions tho and add jicama
We diced it and eat with sautéed shrimp paste in the Philippines. I also like to soak it in vinegar with little garlic, salt, black pepper and chili

Delish! I make a broccoli slaw but add jicama to it!
Who like Jicama??? it is great.
I WAS WONDERING WHAT THIS GIANT MEXICAN POTATO WAS. 😅
I didn't get it. Where does the jicama come from?
Native to Mexico. The rest of the plant like the leaves and pea pods are posioness. The root here as shown is great to consume raw or cooked.
I love Jicama
THANK YOU! I am stupid and i thought you eat it like an apple lol
Put it in the fridge after it's been chopped up, when cold eat it with tajin
Peeler works great. Just pull towards you.
Lime n salt,n tapatio
It can be juiced also.
Slap some Tajín… done.
Who like Jicama???
I have been eatting it raw. It reminds me of a sweet potato.
Can I air-fry Jicama sticks like french fries?
Can I use it dear
Can u boil Jicama???
Boil like in stew ???
Bettering raw like a fruit, Rutabaga and potatoes are better the get harder when you cook them lol way to expensive
Singkamas in tagalog(????)
Why not eat the peelings??
peelings have a kind of leathery texture and no a good taste. So it is better don't eat them.
I Ate one and I pooped for 5 times a days for a month and a half
