"While a simple green salad is always a \u201Cnice\u201D option, I love to find new and interesting ingredients that really make a salad something special.\u00A0 For this recipe, I show you how to make a Jicama and Apple salad, served over some butter lettuce, that has a huge variety of flavors and textures.\u00A0 Those flavors and textures, enable the salad to really stands up as substantial portion of the meal (or frankly could be a meal on it\u2019s own), rather than simply being a side salad. \u00A0While I love this salad in Summer, great quality apples and jicama are good all year long, so give it a try any time. \u00A0Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.\n\n\nJicama Recipe Overview &amp;amp; Keys to SuccessTo make the best Apple and Jicama Salad, make sure to pay attention to these few things:Make sure to use good quality ingredients.\u00A0 The apples need to be crisp and taste good.\u00A0 The Jicama should fresh, as should everything else.\u00A0 When you treat ingredients simply, they really do need to be high quality.I don\u2019t think you need much dressing on this salad.\u00A0 Unlike many greens, the ingredients here already have substantial flavors, that you\u2019re just trying to highlight and bring together with a light dressing.\u00A0 Add just a bit at a time and taste as you goTry to chop the apples and Jicama in consistent sizes...that will make for a better presentation and make it easier to eatYou can mix the ingredients together 30 minutes to a hour a head of time, but don\u2019t put them on the butter lettuce until the last minute.\u00A0 Otherwise, the lettuce can wilt and go limp on youMake sure you season with salt and pepper, taste and reseason if neededIngredients for\u00A0the Salad\u00A0(for 4)1 apple diced into 1/2 inch piecesAn equal amount of diced Jicama, cut to the same size1 head of butter lettuce1/4 cup toasted walnuts\u00A02 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese2 diced scallions1 lemon for the juice2 strips bacon cut and fried into lardons~ 1 teaspoons Honey~ 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar~ 3 tablespoons of olive oilJicama SaladDice the bacon and cook it until crispyToast the walnutsWhile they cook dice the apple (coat the diced apple in lemon juice to prevent them from turning brown), and the jicamaAdd the apple, jicama, bacon, walnuts, diced scallions, and blue cheese to a mixing bowlDrizzle in about half the honey, vinegar, and olive oil; season with salt and pepper and mix togetherTaste, and add more of the dressing and/or salt and pepperCut the leaves from the butter lettuce, wash them, and lay them down on the serving plateSpoon the Jicama salad into the lettuce cups and serveWine RecommendationFor this salad, I really like a light and refreshing white wine. Frankly sparkling wine would go great, but for everyday eating I\u2019m more likely to grab a nice sauvignon blanc, that is fruity and floral."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
