To store: This soup can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days or stored in your freezer for up to two months. Tony's Tip: Andouille sausage is a smoked meat, which means you don't need to cook it before serving. We add it to the soup and cook for five minutes just to heat the sausage and allow the flavors to meld together. If you can't find Andouille sausage, look for another firm-bodied, smoked meat to use as a substitute, but stay away from crumbly sausages like Chorizo for this recipe.
