Selecting fresh Jicama - Fresh jicama tastes sweet and has thin skin with a lighter color than when it has been harvested for awhile. Many times farmers show off the freshness of their crop by keeping the green stem on the bulb (as seen in this photo). Old jicama have brown and tougher skin, and not as sweet.
