If possible, you can cover it with a small quilt. I covered it with a lid while it was hot, and then placed it directly in a room with a slightly higher temperature for two days. After opening the lid, I could smell the aroma of mustard. Then peel off the edible amount from the outer layer and dip it into the mustard soup and fermented mustard powder before eating.
Usually just add rice vinegar. I happen to have some leftovers from the last olive oil competition I participated in at home.The red wine vinegar has a different aroma than rice vinegar and has a more elegant taste, so I added this.
