Is the mole starter gluten-free? What about vegetarian?

I’m having difficulties opening the jar, what do I do?

These can be quite tricky - Push down with force and twist. We have to make sure every jar is tightly closed to avoid leaking. This can sometimes cause some difficulties opening the jar. If the pushing down and twisting doesn’t work, dip the top of the jar in a pot filled with hot water for a few seconds, this will loosen up the top and help release tension from the cap.
