The rainy season is finally coming.
I cant believe that we should have wet weather for couple of week...
We may see mouldy foods in this season.
Mould grows rapidly in damp place so we need to care about it.
Mould is a fungus and some moulds cause disease or food spoilage.Mould spores could present health hazard to human such as kindy desease, other internal organs desease, nerve desease, allergics, or sterility.
If you find mould on bread, you cannot eat anymore.
You might think it is ok if you chop moulds off, but there are moulds spores in it too. It si too risky try eating moulds food!
You know some mould is used to make some kinds of cheese, such as Roquefort, Gorgonzola, brie and Camembert. These moulds are safe to eat. Especially with alcohol! yeaaaaahhhh
So, how can we avoid producing moulds?
According to this web site....
- When serving food, keep it covered to prevent exposure to mould spores in the air. Use plastic wrap to cover foods you want to stay moist — fresh or cut fruits and vegetables, and green and mixed salads.
- Empty opened cans of perishable foods into clean storage containers and refrigerate them promptly.
- Don't leave any perishables out of the refrigerator more than 2 hours.
- Use leftovers within 3 to 4 days so mould doesn't have a chance to grow.
I 've heard from TV program that curry produce moulds if it's inside of fridge.
I always feel like eating curry in a summer so I should keep it in mind and learn it more :)
