Making seafood stock is done like any other stock, by boiling the bones & trimmings/giblets from the protein/meats being used. In this case, we have the shrimp shells ( & heads if available? ) & the juice from any canned meat if being used (which should be set aside & used as part of the required amount of stock to be used.)
Using a large pot, add at least a cup or 2 more water than is required for stock amount needed. Add the shells/? heads & boil for about 45 min.s, strain & set aside the required amount for use. that's it!!
good luck & enjoy!

My family 1st moved to the North Shore above New Orleans when I was only 14, whereas I instantly fell in love with the local cuisine. I love fine food & soon learned I had the knack for creating it. Whenever I come across something I like, I'll try cooking it off & on until I figure out the right recipe for it. My bill of fare includes, Cajun, Italian, Chinese /Thai, Mexican & southern comfort food, all with a Creole influence. Though my bill of fare includes a wide ethnic variety, my menu is actually fairly small; but the dishes on it, are guaranteed to be amongst the best in their class that you'll find anywhere!
