  Mold can appear on dried food due to several reasons: * Incomplete drying. * Failure to check moisture content within a week. * Using a storage container that isn't airtight. * Storage temperature being too warm or humidity being too high. * Drying food at too high a temperature, causing it to harden on the outside while remaining moist inside. To prevent mold, test several pieces of food for dryness, check the storage container for moisture within 1 week and dry the food again if necessary, use airtight containers, store food in cool areas (21°C or lower), and dry food at appropriate temperatures, using the drying instructions as a guide.
