About this deal

We thought it was a fruit because it was in the fruit section at Wal-Mart. False advertisement. We had to look up Mexican potato to find out what it was. You have probably never heard of jicama before unless you are a big fan of Mexican cuisine. It is not a common vegetable, but worth a try nonetheless!

Go to any asian supermarket. Grandmart or Lotte Plaze in the DC area will have it. Veggies are cheaper there anyway.I've never heard of jicama until today when I saw it in a rachel ray programme here in the UK. Is it on sale here? Root rot is a fungal disease that causes the roots to become sunken and deformed and can even hinder the growth of the vine. To prevent this, do not overwater your jicama and plant your seedlings in soil that drains well.

Pachyrhizus ahipa: Also called the Andean yam bean, the ahipa variety of jicama also grows as a tuberous root vegetable. However, its juice has a milkier consistency and its flavor is not as desirable as the erosus variant. Last but not least, there are, in fact, six types of Daikon radish and you might be wondering which one to use as a substitute. As a whole, each of those types has a sweet taste although they differ in sweetness which gives you several viable options. Bought a small one for the first time in a Chinese grocery store to try. doing this with different veggies...no cooking needed...suits me fine....my wife must watch her potassium intake so, please, what is the level of potassium??

Water chestnuts will stay crunchy when cooked and will not soften to the same extent as jicama. They are better suited as a side dish or garnish than they are as a base of a meal. While experimenting is always fun, here are three substitutes for jicama that have proven to be sufficient and we safely recommend. 1. Jerusalem artichoke i was pleasantly surprised by how light and refreshing jicamas taste! i wonder, though, how starchy jicamas are, and if they're bad for low carb diets?
