Your post prompts me to mull over reducing seafood stock. When simmering the shrimp heads & shells for shrimp stock, there’s a moment when the flavor profile is perfect. Leave the heads & shells in for longer and this will “sour” the taste. Once the broth is filtered, cannot reduction ensue without ruining the flavor? If one is careful to control temperature and stir periodically, isn’t it possible to achieve demi-glace or even glace with the most desirable flavor profile?Chicken pot pie by Marie Callender.
I am eager to try a seafood pot pie in the future from Marie Callender.

I can warm up leftovers in the microwave and make sandwiches but I do not cook for the simple reason is that I have cerebral palsy and it would be dangerous for me to try to cook.
Perhaps somebody else on this thread can answer your question.
