SALTY RECIPE
By: Guanajuato ¡Si Sabe!
Guanajuato Salad
Jicama and xoconostle, two symbolic ingredients of Guanajuato, greet visitors when they arrive in the most fertile land in the center of the country with a fresh and acidic salad that is impossible to resist eating. This typical salad is often the preamble to other equally fascinating gastronomic discoveries. All visitors should have a gastronomic memory based on jicama and xoconostle.
Ingredients:
- 1 kg peeled jicama
- 4 xoconostles, peeled and chopped
- 1⁄2 medium onion, chopped
- 3 serrano or red chili peppers to taste, chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- the juice of 4 lemons
- salt to taste
Directions:
Cut the jicama into pieces with a knife, trying to break it into small uniform pieces, so it will absorb better and faster all the flavors of the rest of the ingredients. Stir very well and consume it as an appetizer.
