This was delicious. Very cool and refreshing. My personal preference I would use less oil. The only down side, it is hard to find jicama all year.
Timothy Moran
Made this a second time and we added avocado, roasted chicken breast (shredded) and unsalted pistachios. So amazing.
Robert Diaz

I agree with all 5 star ratings!  The toasted sesame seeds were the ‘icing’.
