Jicama is a crispy, sweet, edible tuber that resembles a turnip in physical appearance, although the plants are not related. It has been cultivated in South America for centuries, and the vegetable is quite popular in Mexican cuisine. Jicama's unique flavor lends itself well to salads, salsas, and vegetable platters. The tubers can sometimes grow to be quite large, although when they exceed the size of two fists, they begin to convert the sugars that give them their sweet flavor into starches, making them somewhat woody to the taste.
Actually the tuberous root of a legume plant, jicama grows on vines that may reach 20 feet (6 meters) in length. The vines tend to hug the ground, ending in tubers that may grow up to 50 pounds (22 kilograms) in size, although the majority of those sent to market are approximately 3 to 4 pounds (1.3 to 2 kilograms) in weight. Before eating, the coarse brown outer layer should be peeled to reveal the white inside.
When choosing jicama at the store, shoppers should look for medium sized, firm tubers with dry roots. Wet or soft spots may indicate rot, and shoppers should not be drawn to overlarge ones, because they may not be as flavorful. They should not be refrigerated, as temperatures of less than around 50° F (10° C) will damage them..
Jicama is excellent raw and is sometimes eaten plain. It can also be used as a substitute for water chestnut in Chinese dishes, in which case it should be thrown in right before serving. The roots also appear in stews, juiced drinks, stuffings, and a variety of other recipes. In addition to having a unique flavor and texture, jicama takes flavor well, making it well suited to culinary experimentation. It's a great source of vitamin C and is fat free — making it a great on-the-go snack.
The plants grow best in warm, dry climates. They can be planted and grown year round, although tubers form better during the winter time. Jicama plants sprouted in the late spring tend to produce extremely robust tubers by the winter, while those planted in the summer produce the most flavorful ones, although they are typically somewhat smaller. The plant prefers full sun and moderate rainfall, and it is subject to frost damage, making it a poor choice for northern climates. In addition, jicama produces a natural insecticide in the above ground vine, meaning that the plant protects itself from harmful pests.

Please don't believe Jicama has "zero calories". I saw that in some posts, on here. That is false information. I've checked several sites, all with similar information about them, including nutritional information. A medium sized one (imagine a large orange) has approximately 250 calories, 58g carbs, 32g fiber,12g protein and 21g of sugar. Just do the research for yourself, and don't believe everything on the internet, (including me; I am not offended) and make an intelligent decision for yourself. I eat them raw, and cook them just like any root vegetable. They can be baked, broiled, boiled, mashed, pureed, and sautéed. I presume they could be fried like potatoes, but haven't tried them that way, so i can't endorse that style of preparation/presentation. Whatever you decide, experiment until you find what you like. Good luck to everyone! |

My stepdaughter and her husband have a juicery here in Salt Lake City,Utah, which uses jicama quite successfully. It's actually one of their most popular and best sellers. If you haven't tried to juice it, try it with some of their combinations and I think you'll be very pleasantly surprised. Carrot, jicama, orange, pear and ginger is my favorite!

Jicama is "singkamas" in tagalog here in the Philippines. It is the season now for this fruit. In our local market, it is available with the fresh leaves still attached. This is a great thirst buster as it is so watery and very cool to the mouth! Yes, it is a very good substitute for water chestnuts. It is also good to mix with vegetable spring rolls.

Jicama is usually in the sweet pepper section of the grocery. Our small grocers carry it, so should be plentiful in larger chains. We just peel and eat like an apple.

i have an amazing thing to tell you all! This is my recipe for sugared jicama. First, peel the skin off until you have the meat of the fruit. After that, get a potato peeler and slice the jicama meat with it. the product should look like a pile of jicama "chips" then you should get out a big plate or cutting board and lay the jicama chips on it(don't overlap them). Then, grab a handful of sugar and shake it evenly onto the jicama chips, and now you have yourself a beautiful plate of sugared jicama chips. Thanks for reading my recipe! |

How to identify jicama: I had looked at Wal-Mart and couldn't find jicama. Out of curiosity, I looked it up on the Internet to see what one looked like. I went back to Wal-Mart and found them but the only identification on the produce tag said "Discover the Mexican Fruit Treasure." So you just need to know what it looks like: shaped like a turnip root but colored like a potato. It has a brown/tan bumpy textured skin. |

Deenie (anon1527): Jicama is sometimes called a "Mexican potato." Actually, finding jicama hasn't been my problem. Finding it in good shape has been an issue. I live in nearby Columbia, Md. I've found it in the Ft. Meade military commissary and at Bloom grocery store in Scaggsville, Md. But it seems every time I find it, if I look closely, I see that the vegetable has a bit of mold on it. I mentioned this to the guy in the produce department, and he says the jicama is a very slow mover. It comes in damp and sits for a time. So, visually inspect them up close when you do find them would be my advice. They are said to be very good cut up and dipped into hummus, etc. Much healthier than potato chips! |

In Minnesota we find it in nearly all grocery stores near the fresh herbs. Jicama tastes more like fresh sugar snap peas or sweet green beans than turnips or potatoes, which people had asked above. We use it instead of water chestnuts, have used strips in oriental salads, but our favorite Jicama use is in fresh salsa. Add about as much chopped Jicama as you do onion. It will absorb some of the salt and other seasoning, so make sure you add the Jicama, stir it up well, let it sit for a little (we usually plan an our of refrigeration - *then* taste for spice. |

One serving of Jicama (a mere 1 cup) is 49.5 calories. What really makes it great though is the incredible amount of fiber in it. 1 cup contains 6.4 grams of dietary fiber, (25%) so eating four servings (just under 200 calories) gives your body all the fiber it needs for a day. Try saying that about any other food so tasty. These little guys are so versatile! You can prepare them just about any way you could imagine and serve them in accompaniment with almost any entree. A fantastic food, all the way around. |

I think there is some confusion about carbohydrates. Jicama is high in carbohydrates in the form of fiber. Sugar is only one type of carbohydrate and jicama is low in sugar. 100 grams of jicama is about 9 grams of carbs, of which 7 grams are fiber and 2 grams are sugar. |

In order to answer some questions by other users: Jicamas and coconuts are NOT similar in taste. Jicamas are almost 90% water, you can compare them to watermelons as they are crunchy and juicy, but the flavor is very different, jicamas are very very soft in flavor, a little bit sweet, so you can mix them with other fruits or veggies in salads. They will not alterate the flavor of other ingredients in a recipe, as the flavor is very very soft, almost unnoticeable. I've seen it in many chinese recipes as well. Jicamas are very low in carbs and have no fat, so it's an excellent snack when you're on a diet. Try them raw, in cubes (1 or 2 inches is OK), with lime juice, salt, and chili powder, that's the best!!! You can add pineaple, cantaloupe, watermelon and mangos if you like. Erik |

Jícama is high in carbohydrates in the form of dietary fiber. It is composed of 86-90% water; it contains only trace amounts of protein and lipids. Its sweet flavor comes from the oligofructose inulin (also called fructo-oligosaccharide). |
