How long will gumbo stay fresh in the fridge?

Answer 1

This food will only last a few days. 3 days in the refrigerator if the food is stored properly. Place in an air tight container for the best results. You can transfer the food to the freezer if longer storage is needed.

Answer 2

Time to actual spoilage is uncertain. From a food safety concern, it can be left at room temperature for no more than 2 hours. After that, it should be re-heated or refrigerated. Less time is better.

If you have a large amount that needs to be put away, split it up into smaller portions that are less than 3" deep to facilitate cooling and place them in the fridge.

Answer 3

I've had thawed gumbo as far out as six months from the day it was first frozen and it was still good. I wouldn't go much further out then that.

Answer 4

Gumbo should be safe for 3 - 5 days if stored in the refrigerator.

Answer 5

Four days.
