I just eat mine like carrot sticks. I've never ventured to actually cook it. After I cut mine up, if I'm not using it that day, I found that putting left overs in sugar water helped it taste better later. Just plain water seemed to water it down to much and no water dried it out really bad. I only put a little sugar in the water, not much. If you get a good one, it can be very sweet. A less good one and it can be bland. Just avoid soft ones, they don't taste good at all. I found the best ones are the ones that are nice and hard in the store.

[quote=Kris;88418]I simply squeeze a little lime juice on julienned Jicama and eat it like that. Diced, on a salad or in a tuna salad or something would be really yummy. =)[/QUOT

It does seem to store better on the counter top. After you cut it up it's OK to put in the fridge. I didn't know the fridge was bad either for a long time and always put it in there as well.

I'm such a dope! I've never heard of it. Is it something you can get at your average grocery store like walmart, or is it something you have to get at a specialty store?

I'd love to try it!

They dont have em at my local grocery store but I have a food coop that sells them and it is right across the street from the grocery store, they also have them at hispanic grocery stores as well. Whole foods carries em too.
