Do you refrigerate the leftover jars of this soup or not? Also, how long does it keep? Thanks!
Hi, Cathy! We talk a little about storage in the blog post. As long as you refrigerate it in an airtight container, it’ll keep for 3-5 days or so. You can also freeze it in an airtight container and it’ll keep up to 2 months.
Do you have a specific all purpose seasoning blend you prefer? Thank you!
We like to use any type, really! The kind we have is by the brand Simply Organic.
Hi- I’m wondering if I can use almond flour or rice flour instead of the all purpose gluten free. I’m making for a friend. Thank you!
We personally have not tried it, but we hear rice flour is great for thickening soups!
LOVE that you made a gluten free version of this! I used to be obsessed as a kid and I can’t wait to make this.
