Hi there, first time poster, first time dry curing question. Great site.
First attempt is pepperoni using the Ruhlman Polcyn recipe. Had to travel, so was only able to incubate for 12 hours at 78 degs and 40% rh. Then pepperoni went into wine fridge at a rock solid 60 degs and 80% rh. After 7 days drying, noticed white mold spots starting to develop last 48 hours. While white = good generally from what I understand, this mold isn't developing like the finely spotted 600 mold bath pictures I have seen. Want to make sure that what is blooming on mine is ok to continue. I sliced a small piece off one of the larger sausages. Color looks good, aroma good. Cooked it up and while very, very tangy, it was definitely not "bad". Pictures attached.
Thanks in advance for any replies.
James
