If that cheese in your refrigerator looks to be turning a little green, don’t worry. You may be able to salvage it .
If mold forms on a hard cheese, such as a cheddar, cut or scrape it off. To prevent further mold from developing, remove the cheese from its wrapper, wipe it off with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, then tightly wrap it in a fresh, clean, clear plastic, says Cabot Creamery Cooperative. Hard cheeses can last in the refrigerator for a year.
However, if mold forms on soft or fresh cheese, or spreads throughout a firm cheese, discard it, the co-op says.
