I really liked this recipe. Served it with chilorio quesadillas that you recently made on GMA. I like to eat pico like a salad and the pineapple and jicama were wonderful. It helps balance out the richness of cheese and rich meats. Thank you, Pati, for this recipe

Hello Patti
I never miss your live cooking shows. T U for your taking me to Sinaloa. I feel like I go on vacation and have learned so much in their style of cooking. You’re awesome.
Can’t wait to back the capirotada y el frijoles/caldo con los “dumplings

Jicama is this delicious, crisp, white-fleshed legume that is very widely used in Mexican cooking, even just as a snack with lime juice, salt and chili pepper, yum!

Hi Lisa, on the show I served this with the double stacked shrimp tacos, but I can also see it on top of some grilled white fish or as a sort of pico to top tacos 😉
