You can also store your au jus inside an ice tray, then transfer it to the sealable plastic bag or another airtight container to store within the refrigerator for up until 6 months.
- If you’re on a strict gluten-free diet, be sure that the Worcestershire sauce you purchase is gluten-free. It could include malt vinegar, which is a byproduct of wheat.
