Aloha, I’ve made the gochujang and will start making the doenjang from the recipe on your website. Gochujang is great! But I’m wondering why you suggest putting these foods in sunshine during the curing/fermenting process and after.
UV rays from sunshine help disinfect the top layer, where most spoilage ends up occurring.
