Notes
Expert Tip: For the best flavor in this mushroom stew recipe, make sure to brown the stew meat thoroughly over medium heat before adding the onions and celery. This process, known as searing, locks in the meat's juices and creates a rich, savory base for the stew.
Refrigerate: After enjoying this flavorful mushroom stew, you can store any leftovers in a bowl or container with a lid. Keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Freeze: This dish can also be frozen for future meals. Simply place the cooled stew in a freezer-safe container and freeze. It can be stored this way for up to 3 months.
Thaw and Reheat: When you're ready to enjoy the stew again, let it thaw in the refrigerator. Once thawed, reheat it on the stove top over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it is heated through.
