Kitchen Basics: Seafood Stock
Submitted by: CHEF_MEG
Introduction
Chicken and beef stocks are easy to find on store shelves, and many of them taste almost as good as homemade. It's a bit trickier to find seafood stock, and I've never found one that I really like. Thankfully, making your own is fairly easy.Chicken and beef stocks are easy to find on store shelves, and many of them taste almost as good as homemade.

Ingredients
-
3-4 ounces shrimp shells, from about 15-20 shrimp (from 25-30 count shrimp)
1 teaspoon soybean oil
3/4 cup onion, chopped
1 leek, white and pale green part only, thinly sliced
1 stalk celery, chopped
4 mushrooms, chopped
2 parsley stems
6 peppercorns
4 1/2 cups cold water
Tips
Directions
Heat a stock pot or large saucepan over moderate heat. Add oil to the hot pan, then add the shrimp shells to the hot oil. Saute until the shells become bright pink (almost red). Add the vegetables and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low and sweat the vegetables for 3 minutes.
Add the seasonings and water, and turn the heat to high. Bring the stock to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes. Cool slightly then strain through a fine-mesh strainer.
Makes 8 one-half cup servings.
