Title: fish stock from your left over crab parts?
Post by: DoubleJ on July 21, 2012, 12:19:32 AM: Going to give this a go this weekend. Wife is always asking for fish stock before we go to the store but then we forget to buy it. Going to make a few quarts and freeze them.

It would be crab stock but substitutable for fish stock and that's how'd she'd use it.
