For best flavor, allow the coleslaw to sit for at least 30 minutes after dressing to allow the flavors to meld. The candied walnuts can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you don't have jicama, you can substitute with daikon radish or even crisp apple for a slightly different flavor profile. Adjust the amount of ginger in the dressing to your preference. A little goes a long way! For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the candied walnuts or a dash of chili oil to the dressing.
