Shiitake is not the best mushroom for making "meaty" stems (in my opinion).

Try using regular button or other mushrooms
that have large, non-tough stems.

Use a veg'n "chicken" bouillon with added
rosemary & parsley (or poultry seasoning),
and simmer the stems gently for at least 30 minutes.

Then use this "chicken" however you like.

For "seafood" flavored stems, use a "seafood"
bouillon like the one I posted earlier today.

If you can get them, King Oyster mushrooms
have a seafood-like texture and flavor,
so that will come out even more so.
