Tips:
- Choose ripe, sweet corn for the best flavor. Look for ears with tightly packed kernels and no signs of damage.
- If using fresh jicama, peel it before slicing. Jicama is a root vegetable with a tough, brown skin.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the mango. Mangoes can be slippery, so be careful when cutting them.
- Toss the salad with a light vinaigrette dressing. A simple dressing made with olive oil, vinegar, and salt and pepper will do the trick.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. This salad is best served fresh, but it can be chilled for up to 2 hours.
