Jicama (00946)

Jicama, also known as the Mexican potato/Mexican water chestnut/yam bean, is a large, bulbous root with thick brown skin on the outside and crisp white flesh on the inside. When taking a bite out of jicama, you will get a nice crunch paired with a mildly sweet, nutty flavor. The texture and taste of jicama are similar to that of a water chestnut. Jicama is low carb and packed with vitamin C, making it the perfect healthy snack.
