What is the difference between a soup and a stew?

• Answer #1

  Most soups are thin, or water-based, while stew is thick with minimal liquid, usually thickened to the point of being like gravy instead of a broth. Also, soups can be eaten either hot or cold, and can be cooked or uncooked. Stews are usually eaten hot. Ingredients in a stew are always chunkier and more abundant (present in great quantity), while a soup can be like a water base with just a few pieces of vegetables.
