How to Store
Stash your jambalaya soup in the fridge in a sealed container for up to four days, keeping all that Creole goodness on lockdown. When you’re ready to reignite the flavors, warm it gently in a pot over a medium flame until it’s piping hot. For a quick single serving, zap it in the microwave in short bursts, stirring in between to spread that warmth evenly
