Jicama is no longer a stranger in produce departments. This brown root vegetable resembles a potato in appearance, although it is flatter and more irregular. The flavor and tex ture are somewhat similar to water chestnuts. Jicama (pronounced heec'ama) is a versatile vegetable. Peeled and sliced, it gives a pleasing crunchiness to tossed salads. It also adds an in teresting texture and flavor to potato salads. Strips o f jicama are crisp additions to relish trays and can be served with a favorite dip. Jicama can also be cut into cubes and boiled u ntil tender. When cooked in this manner, it is served with melted butter and seasonings. O r it can be combined with other vegetables. Its crisp texture adds variety to green beans, peas and other soft vegetables. For another tasty combination, s tir-fry jicam a with celery, bean sprouts and toasted almonds. Then serve it with chicken or another en tree. The nutritive value of jicama re sembles that of potatoes. One 3V4 ounce serving provides ap proximately 30 per cent of an adult’s vitamin C requirement. Jicama is a good choice for weight watchers. One serving has only about 43 calories. y \ 1 t Food Section First 5 Additional at Regular Price C ri 1 S h o rty C o m / Reg. $ 5 .2 9 4 3 oz. pkg.
