I was in" piggly wiggly" and I saw these beautiful fresh shrimp, caught by a SC fisherman in a SC creek. I did not have shrimp for a while and when I did they were frozen shrimp. I could not resist these fresh shrimp even they were a little pricey. When I got home I cleaned them immediately and made a stock with the shell. In the evening I made some" shrimp, angel hair and goat cheese ". here is the recipe
