Ingredients

6 cups water

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 lb shrimp shells and/or heads

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon whole black peppercorns

1 dried bay leaf

1 tablespoon parsley

3 tablespoons onion; chopped

Directions

Place the head and/or shells in the water; add the other ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes.

The oil should help prevent excessive foaming and boiling-over; but watch carefully. Strain stock into covered containers and refrigerate until needed. Discard heads and/or shells.

Use in soups and sauces that call for shrimp stock.
