I love raw jicama cubes in curried chicken salad. Sweeter than potato, more like apple.

I eat it raw, salted. Thanks for this.. I have been asking around if the toxicity affects the soil if used after harvest as a source of nitrogen. You opened with the info.

In Philippines we called it singkamas

Chile-salt (or Tajin) + lime juice. YUM!

Apparently the pods can be cooked when it's still very immature. BTW, do flowering make the roots tough? I'm assuming setting seeds takes energy from the root.

Do you reserve a portion of the crop for reseeding? How is the root quality of plants that were allowed to ripen their pods?

In the Philippines we eat the peas of jicama, it's delicious

I eat a whole one raw everyday. Today I had it cubed in my squash soup. Instant pot x5min. Consistency of a potato.
Can I grow them in Oklahoma?

[teffyvargas]

Try it with some lime salt and hot sauce as a snack

[mazdody]

I love jicamas, eat raw as salad with sweet sour hot sauce

My favorite jicama recipe is OMNOMNOM or in other words, just chopped and eaten raw.
