JICAMA CITRUS SALAD
Never tried jicama? It is a crunchy Mexican turnip, and I love to use it in this super easy salad. The jicama is ideal alongside the vibrant flavors of the tangerines and shallots. Between the sweet and sour flavors in this salad and its crunchy texture, it's all delish if you ask me. -Crystal Jo Bruns, Iliff, Colorado

Tips:
- Choose ripe and juicy clementines: Look for clementines that are firm and have a deep orange color. Avoid clementines that are soft or have blemishes.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the clementines: This will help to prevent the clementines from tearing.
- Remove the pith from the clementines: The pith is the white, fibrous part of the clementine. It is bitter and should be removed before eating.
- Use a sturdy grater to grate the jicama: This will help to create uniform pieces of jicama.
- Add the desired amount of dressing to the salad: The amount of dressing you add will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The jicama will start to soften and lose its crunch if it is stored for too long.
Conclusion:
This Clementine Jicama Salad is a refreshing and healthy salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. The combination of sweet clementines, crunchy jicama, and tangy dressing is sure to please everyone at your table.
