5 small thai chiles, stemmed and lightly crushed
4 kaffir lime leaves, crushed
3 cups shrimp stock
1 cup fresh shiitake mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

Directions:

In the center of a 6-inch square piece of cheesecloth, place the lemongrass, ginger, chilies and lime leaves. Draw up the sides to form a pouch and tie with kitchen twine.
