Jicama With Chili Salt image

This is an adopted recipe that I have finally had the opportunity to try. The combination of the lime with the chili salt on the crisp jicama is really good. I used a chipotle chili pepper and found the ration of salt to heat to be just right. The original posted tried this at a sample table in Whole Foods Market.
