Steps:
- Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add shrimp heads and shells and cook, stirring occasionally, until shells and oil are bright red and shells are very fragrant, 5-8 minutes.
- Use a potato masher to press down firmly on heads to release their juices.
- Stir in tomato paste and cook until it starts to brown and stick to the bottom of the pot, about 1 minute.
- Add 1/3 cup of wine and cook, scraping up brown bits, until almost completely evaporated, about 3 minutes.
- Add carrot, celery, thyme sprigs, peppercorns, 2 onion halves, all but 4 garlic cloves and 8 cups of water and bring to a boil over medium high heat.
- Reduce heat and simmer until stock is reduced by 1/4 and very fragrant, 60-70 minutes.

- Stir in remaining 1/3 cup of wine and cook, stirring, until wine is almost completely evaporated.
- Ladle in about 1 cup warm stock and cook, stirring, until liquid is absorbed.
