To Store in the Refrigerator: Once your stew has cooled then transfer it to an airtight container. It will last in your fridge for about 3-4 days.To Freeze: Cook your soup up as directed and wait for it to cool. Once it has cooled, then place it in a freezer ziplock bag or airtight container (make sure to label it with the date). Leave a little bit of room for it to expand as it freezes. It can stay in your freezer for up to 3 months. Once you remove it, if it has separated and needs to be thickened then you can thicken it up with some cornstarch or flour. The consistency should go back to normal.
