About Shrimp stock
Shrimp stock is a savoury cooking liquid made by simmering shrimp shells or other shrimp parts in water, often with aromatic vegetables or seasonings. It is generally thin and may be pale to reddish in colour, with a briny, seafood-rich aroma and flavour.
It is used as a liquid base for soups, sauces, and other dishes. Homemade and commercial versions can differ in which shrimp parts are used, how concentrated they are, and whether salt or additional ingredients are included; strained stock is distinct from shrimp meat or paste.
