Nhut mit is mainly made in the second and third lunar months when the jackfruit is still young (when the jackfruit seed has no silk shell yet). The jackfruit is picked and the outer skin is peeled under running water to avoid the sap sticking to hands or clothes when making it. After peeling, use a knife to chop or slice it into strands from the outside in. Then soak it in rice water to make the jackfruit strands white, then put it on a tray to dry in the sun until the strands are firm. Next, mix it with salt in the right proportion and pound it in a large stone mortar or knead it by hand until it softens. After pounding, mix it with sticky corn flour and dried Vietnamese coriander and put it in a ceramic jar or earthenware pot. Pour in cooled boiled water until it is covered, then use a hard bamboo mat to press it down tightly. After about 5 to 6 days, it is ready to use.

Nhut is made once and eaten all year round, so dishes made from nhut are very diverse. Every day, in a meal, nhut can be eaten with rice, just a little fish sauce is enough for dipping sauce. Nhut mixed with roasted peanuts, herbs, hot peppers, boiled pig ears cut into strips with spices will give us a salad that is both strange and delicious, not fatty and a little sour. In addition, in the summer, nhut can be used to cook fish soup, in the winter, nhut stir-fried with pork belly... will create a very delicious dish. Nhut jackfruit can also be stir-fried with lemon leaves, lean meat or cooked with peanuts to make soup...
