      Dear Maangchi,

      I bought a big packet of Red pepper for making Kimchi but the top

      has gone mouldy when I open it last week. Can the red pepper still

      be used or do I throw them away?

      How do you keep the red pepper powder from getting mouldy?

      Thank you.

      If hot pepper flakes are not stored in the freezer, they will go moldy in a few months, depending on the temperature. The top of your hot pepper flakes have mould? I would throw the whole bag away.

      Check out the expiration date when you buy them next time. https://www.maangchi.com/ingredient/hot-pepper-flakes
