The slightly spicy kick on the pallette at the end keeps it interesting and not your everyday coleslaw recipe. In fact, I'm usually not a huge fan of coleslaw but the Jicama and Apple and the unique dressing makes this recipe a stand out among other slaws. I will definitely make this again- great summer salad, so refreshing and light. If you're reading this, try it!Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12361304297266367995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-20739529544742331382013-07-05T22:58:53.635-04:002013-07-05T22:58:53.635-04:00I made this yesterday for our Fourth of July celeb...I made this yesterday for our Fourth of July celebration. Turned out great, and got lots of compliments (which actually went to my wife but who's counting?). I went a little light on the Siracha (to keep it kid-friendly) and supplemented with ketchup to attain the pink color but otherwise followed the recipe.<br /><br />Thanks for yet another winner, Chef John!

His dressing in this recipe is original, but very good and I think it is better than the vinegar based one. Also, instead of the corn nuts I use unsalted peanuts, but really any nut is good. I have also adjusted and used granny smith apples at times. I ate this salad a couple of times a week for nearly 3 weeks, since the jicama I bought was so large. (I now know better).<br />Seriously a very good and crisp salad. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-31308177414691286992012-08-06T16:15:07.519-04:002012-08-06T16:15:07.519-04:00Hello Chef this look fantastic, and by the way we ...Hello Chef this look fantastic, and by the way we mexicans love jicama (Your pronunciation is perfect).<br />Greetings from the beautiful and warm Cancun.Cecilianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-7169889418616593042012-07-27T22:42:08.335-04:002012-07-27T22:42:08.335-04:00there is nothing like pineapple, but you can use t...there is nothing like pineapple, but you can use things like lemon or vinegars like regular coleslaw.Chef Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15030125427840815038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-11845574228390032592012-07-27T22:01:59.355-04:002012-07-27T22:01:59.355-04:00is there any replacement for pinnapple juice ??

A thin spread of sweet soy sauce with a dash of fresh chillie sauce is laid on the popiah skin before the rest of the ingredients are place on top.

I did use cilantro, chopped finely into the dressing. <br /><br />I beat the corn nuts very small, when combined with extra crunchy purple cabbage, jicama and granny smith apple, it was super duper crunchy. I'll make slaw with green cabbage from now on LOL<br /><br />Thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827052626667535975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-77126048684459212052011-02-22T22:49:56.754-05:002011-02-22T22:49:56.754-05:00Saw this video this morning, went shopping this af...Saw this video this morning, went shopping this afternoon and made this recipe tonight.
