Narrative:
Event was caused by unexpected turbulence and inability to maintain airspeed at altitude.while enroute to ZZZ we encountered a patch of severe turbulence in an embedded storm. However very little was showing on the radar and there were no prior reports of anything more than moderate chop. Our speed slowly began dropping off; I increased power and requested a descent to FL360. We leveled off there but still could not maintain speed; I requested to descend again to FL340 and increased to takeoff power. At some point in the descent we got the stick shaker very briefly. We executed SOP procedures and recovered uneventfully. All passengers and flight attendants were seated and no injuries were sustained. Initiate more power and quicker descent faster.
