Cut jicama into wedges to serve as part of a charcuterie display, or julienne it to use in salads and slaws. Matchsticks of jicama can be used as a crunchy topping for tacos or rolled into fresh spring rolls. Diced jicama makes a great addition to salsa or ceviche! Use jicama to add crunchy texture to stir frys, or experiment with roasting or frying sticks of jicama to create a low-carb substitute for french fries. No matter how you choose to use it, this jicama will help set your menu apart from the competition!
