      I went away on vacation and forgot to get someone to stir my gojujang as it was fermenting. It now has a white fuzzy mold on top. A coworker says to scrape it off and keep going, but I don’t want to end up kling anyone. Should I just toss it and start over?

      If you don’t put it in the sunlight regularly, you can get some mold. Your coworker must be Korean because that’s right! Just remove that layer and you can use it. Be sure to put it into the sunlight sometimes and stir.
