Frequently asked questions about vegan stew.

What makes a stew vegan?

Stew is traditionally a mix of meat, vegetables, and seasonings cooked in a liquid base. Think of stew as thick soup with hearty ingredients.

Regular stew gets its hearty texture from the meat that is added and the fat that is cooked from the meat. Vegan stew uses vegetables and other ingredients to make it hearty.

What is the secret to good stew.

A good stew is one that is full of flavor and is satisfying.
The flavor of course comes from the ingredients that are added to it.

For many, stew is a meal in itself.
That is, there is a variety of ingredients that are added to the stew that makes it possible to be satisfied without other foods added to the meal.

Tips for making a great stew.

This is one of those recipes that I like to divide into batches. I will serve some stew right away and freeze the rest away for later.

Here are some more great tips for you.

  1. While I have listed the vegetables that my stew has included, you are welcome to add additional or substitutes as desired. Chopped celery, canned corn, or peas would go nicely in this stew.
  2. Make this into soup. Simply add additional vegetable stock to thin it out.
  3. Or, for like a thicker texture stew add a thickener such as cornflour. Combine one to two tablespoons with equal amounts of water and add it to the stew one minute before removing it from the stove.

How to store this homemade stew.

Leftover stew should be covered and refrigerated (about five days) or frozen once cooled (think zip top bags!). You may need to add additional stock or water as needed before serving again.

    I am a believer in healthy living and healthy eating.

    When I turned a certain age (we all have our own ‘certain age’ right?), I decided it was time to eat and live in more healthy manner. I gave up meat and processed foods and adopted a diet based upon fruit, vegetables, and simple recipes. Walking, running, and yoga are a passion as are my pets.
