Leftover solyanka stays fresh in an airtight container for 3-4 days. The flavors often improve the next day as they meld together.
Yes, it adapts well to slow cooking. Brown the ribs and vegetables first, then combine all ingredients except potatoes and olives. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, adding potatoes in the last 2 hours and olives at the end.

Use low-sodium broth, rinse the olives and pickles, and add salt only at the end after tasting. The smoked meat and sausage already contribute saltiness.
