Shrimp Stock

Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Shells from 1 pound (or more) shrimp
3 cloves garlic
1 small onion, peeled and quartered
3 ribs celery, cleaned and chopped
1/2 cup white wine

Preparation

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil and sauté the shells and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the shells turn pink. Add the onion, celery, and wine and bring to a boil. Add water to cover, bring to a boil, then simmer for 20 to 30 minutes to get the flavor out of the shells. Strain, pressing on the shells.
