JICAMA AND MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD
Steps:
- Peel and chop the Jicama in small cubes. Add can of mandarin oranges with small amount of liquid. Add chopped cilantro. Add squeezed lime juice, and toss. Refrigerate 10 or 15 minutes. Just before serving you may add blue cheese sprinkles, and/or chopped nuts. Toss and serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right jicama: Look for jicama that is firm and has a smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid jicama that is soft or has any cracks or bruises.
- Peel the jicama properly: Use a sharp knife to carefully peel the jicama, removing the thin, brown skin. Be careful not to cut into the flesh of the jicama.
- Cut the jicama into uniform pieces: For best results, cut the jicama into thin, matchstick-sized pieces. This will help ensure that the jicama cooks evenly.
- Don't overcook the jicama: Jicama should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, but not mushy. Overcooking will make the jicama lose its flavor and texture.
- Use fresh mandarin oranges: Fresh mandarin oranges will provide the best flavor for this salad. If you can't find fresh mandarin oranges, you can use canned mandarin oranges in a pinch.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing for this salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the salad.
Conclusion:
This jicama and mandarin orange salad is a refreshing and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's light and flavorful, and it's packed with vitamins and minerals. Plus, it's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious salad, give this jicama and mandarin orange salad a try.
