Steps:
- Place the cream cheese, crab meat, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, green onions, and salt to taste in a bowl. Stir to combine.
- Place a wrapper on the counter. Using your finger, wet the edges with water. Place about 2 teaspoons (13g) of filling in the center of the wrapper.
- Fold up 2 opposite corners to meet in the center. Press to seal. Fold up the remaining 2 corners to meet in the center, trying to keep the edges lined up and even. Press all edges again to seal carefully.
- Repeat with the remaining wontons and filling.
- To fry the Rangoon, heat an inch of oil in a pan to 350° Fry the Rangoon, several pieces at a time, until they're golden and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove. Let drain on paper towels. Repeat the frying process with remaining wontons.
- Serve immediately with dipping sauce of choice and garnish with more sliced green onions.

Steps:
- For the sweet and sour sauce: Add the sugar, pineapple juice, vinegar, cherry syrup, ketchup and salt to a 3-quart saucepan over medium-low heat and cook, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved. Combine the cornstarch with 1/4 cup water in a bowl and mix well; add this to the sugar mixture. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- For the wontons: Combine the crab, cream cheese, green onions, soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a large bowl. Mix well to combine; I found using your hands can sometimes be the best way. Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean work surface. Place 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrappers with a little of the egg wash, then fold each into a triangle. Press to seal the wontons, squeezing out any trapped air; this will ensure that the wontons stay closed during frying.
- Heat 2 inches oil in a deep-fryer or a Dutch oven to 375 degrees F. Fry a few wontons at a time until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. When you add the wontons to the oil, the temperature will drop about 10 degrees. Try to keep the temperature maintained at 360 degrees F. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate or sheet pan fitted with a wire rack. Repeat with the remaining wontons. Serve with the sweet and sour sauce and enjoy!
CRAB RANGOON
As an American-born Asian kid, I grew up eating items that were created in the States but are authentic in flavors. The Chinese have been here since the 1800s and if dishes were created by Asians in America I think they are totally authentic. Dishes like orange chicken, California roll, spicy tuna and crab rangoon have now made their way back to the Asian countries from which their native creators originated.

Steps:
- Press out as much liquid as possible from the crabmeat you are using. Any excess moisture will soak through the wonton skins. In a medium bowl, combine the crab, cream cheese, scallions, tarragon, salt and pepper either with your hands or a stand mixer with a paddle attachment.
- Take a wonton skin, place 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of each wrapper.
- With a finger dipped in egg, moisten the 2 adjacent sides; fold over the opposing corner to make a triangle. (You have some choices with shape. You can make a purse, tortellini or traditional triangle wontons.)
- Place the completed ones on a tray. Uncooked, rangoons can be wrapped and kept frozen for 1 to 2 weeks and dropped into the fryer frozen.
- Heat oil in a 4- or 5-quart (3.8- or 4.7-L) Dutch oven or pot until the oil reaches 360 degrees F (182 degrees C). Fry in small batches until golden about 2 minutes on each side and drain on a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet. I like to serve these with sweet chili or plum sauce.
INCREDIBLE CRAB RANGOON
My mom used to take my sister and me to a little Cantonese Chinese restaurant that served these. I loved them! These days, you can't even find a Cantonese restaurant, so I had to come up with my own version

Steps:
- Combine all ingredients except wonton skins until well blended.
- Adjust seasonings, but be gentle with the Worcestershire and soy sauces, or the cheese will turn a dirty brown color, which isn't too appetizing.
- Chill cheese well before starting assembly.
- Place 1 rounded teaspoon of filling in the center of each wonton skin.
- Moisten edges with water, and fold in half to form triangles, squeezing out air as you do so.
- Moisten one bottom corner, pull bottom corners down and overlap slightly, pressing them together to seal.
- To prevent wonton skins from drying out too much, prepare just a few at a time, keeping the remaining skins covered with a damp towel.
- Transfer to a tray, cover with plastic wrap, and chill thoroughly before proceeding.
- Your can either deep fry the Crab Rangoon, which tastes wonderful, or you can bake them, which is much better for you, but not near as crispy.
- It is up to you.
- To fry, you really need a deep fryer, even if it's just a Fry Baby-- the bigger the better, though, unless you're willing to stand there frying 2-3 at a time and then wait for the oil to reheat before the next 2-3.
- Heat the oil to 375 degrees F.
- Drop a few pieces in the deep fryer, place the fryer basket or something on top to keep the puffs submerged, and fry until golden brown.
- Drain, place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels, and hold in a 220 degree F oven while you cook the rest of the puffs.
- Let the oil return to 375 degrees F before frying the next batch.
- To bake, spray a baking sheet with Pam or another nonstick vegetable spray, and arrange puffs on sheet, leaving as much space between them as possible.
- Spray the puffs generously on all sides with Pam, or better yet, if you have one of those pump-up oil sprayers, spray with real grease.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F, and bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Regardless of how you cook them, serve hot with sauces of choice, sweet and sour, plain old soy sauce, and/or hot mustard, so you can take a taste with one sauce, then another, then another, and then back to the first.
- We have never tried these baked, but they are really good deep fried.
- Variations: Instead of doing the triangle thing, moisten the whole top side of the wonton wrapper, add filling, pull all four corners together, and squeeze the wrapper into a little purse shape, squeezing out most of the air before sealing the neck of the bag.
- OR Put the filling into a pastry bag with a 1/4-3/8" round tip, and pipe the filling onto the wonton wrappers.
- Roll into a fat cigarette shape, folding in the ends as you roll.

Steps:
- Chop the scallions.
- Chop the shrimp into small pieces, approximately the size of your finger nail (maybe a little smaller).
- In a bowl, mix the scallions, shrimp, and cream cheese.
- Place a dollop of the mixture in the center of the won-ton wrapper.
- Run a finger under tap water and trace the edge of the won-ton wrapper with your finger. This ensures that your rangoon won't open during when fried.
- Stick the wet edges of the won-ton wrapper together into a triangular shape. Then press two corners of the triangle together for a won-ton shape.
- Fry in hot oil until browned (3-5 min).
- Remove the rangoon onto a paper towel to allow some of the oil to run off.
