chicken of the sea mushroom soup

i wanted to make soup. so, i surveyed my refrigerator and found shrimp and mushrooms. in my cupboards, i found chicken stock. i know i should be using some sort of seafood based stock if i'm going to be using shrimp, but i decided to see how it would taste.

chicken of the sea mushroom soup

1/2 pound of raw shrimp
1-2 cans of chicken stock
4 green onions
1 jalapeno pepper
cellophane/rice noodles
small package of whole mushrooms

peel the shrimp. place the shrimp shells into the chicken stock and bring to a boil for a few minutes, then strain out the shells (my though was that this would make it shrimpier). in the empty pot, add diced jalapenos and shrimp - cook this for a minute or two. separate the mushrooms caps from the stems. julienne the stems, and then place both the caps and stems into the pot. return the stock to the pot. slice a few of the green onions lengthwise and and dice the remaining before adding to the pot. allow everything to simmer for about 10 minutes. in a separate pot, pour boiling water over the cellophane noodles and allow to soften for 5 minutes. strain the noodles and add to the soup.
