Jicama has a thin, light brown outer skin and white flesh. The best way to prepare jicama is to start off by peeling and discarding the outer skin. If the skin is too tough to peel, use a paring knife rather than a vegetable peeler to remove the outer skin. The flesh can then be sliced, chopped, grated or cubed, ready to eat raw or add to a dish. Jicama should be stored in a cool, dry location.
