I did end up making the crab rangoon over the weekend like I'd promised
myself. :-) It's a lot of work but well worth it!

I mixed:

1 lb. fresh frozen shredded crab meat
1 lb. cream cheese
5 cloves minced deep fried garlic (a decent substitute for roasted
garlic)
5 spears fresh asparagus, chopped fine
a generous sprinkling of dried dill weed

Placed into won ton wrappers and deep fried for 1 minute or so.

Well worth the effort. ;-)

I'll be doing it again for sure, but next time I want to try some fresh
chopped shrimp and make shrimp rangoon.

I still have 1 more lb. of crab meat in the freezer tho'. <G>

They were indeed... I always liked them at chinese Sunday buffets, but
mine IMHO were better. I added more crab meat for one thing. <G>

And for another, they were more freshly prepared and fried. The ones on a
buffet have usually been sitting a bit. Your's also look more delicate
than most I see at buffets.

Thanks! :-)
I filled them as much as they were able to take.
They were delightfully light and fluffy......

Just about anything deep fried deteriorates on sitting.

Damn, those look great. You have inspired me to go out and buy wonton
wrappers.

And of course, they would be way better than the buffet stuff - home cooking
usually is!

Thanks! :-)
They are time consuming, but not difficult...
Mom taught me to make won tons when I was a little kid and I used to
help her assemble pork ones.

Just put a small glop of stuff in the middle of the wrapper, then wet
the edges of the wrapper with a wetted finger.

Fold over and press firmly all the way around.

That's it!

When you have a pile of them, mom used to use the pork ones to make won
ton soup in a light chicken stock base, but these were just dropped into
the fry daddy for 3 minutes.

It really is very easy!

Broil the lobster. Boiling does not do it justice.

Just did a crawfish boil. Bugs, white corn and creamer potatoes.

Have you tried Zatarain's Crab Boil, I prefer it to Old Bay?

You should send Barry a frydaddy. He has no stove.

who needs a stove I just get one of my bitches to bring me something
from the olive garden... and if they make me wait too long...? They
know I will lay them across my knee and give them a much deserved hard
spanking.

another thing I hate is if one brings me nasty wine
you know... them bottles that cost around 12 bux.. blaaaa

that's rock gut headache waiting to happen

but really nancy! pig ass and beans? mmmm sorry I missed that one! lol
i bet that took 5 more years off your little hyperstressed self induced
prison you call living.. mmmm
livin it up, i bet things gets so backed up so bad you find yourself
gasping for aire at times, damn skin turning blue stress is so bad ol'
porked heart can't hardly keep up

you're a flunky to false status. poor thing... i reckon if i was
depressed, i'd PORK IT UP TOO!!! but personally i don't care for pig
ass and guts, I don't care if it was prepared in a fry daddy but now I
do like spicy mustard.

Sounds good, but is it customary to put garlic and asparagus in Crab
Rangoon, or was that your variation? I think the rangoon I've had was
just crab, cream cheese and green onions?

Yes, it is a variation. :-)
I make stuff the way _I_ like it.
I rarely ever follow "standard" recipes. <G>

I just really did not want any onion flavor with the crab meat.
It does not appeal to me but I have found that a small amount of garlic
used with crab or shrimp enhances it, as does dill weed.

Sounds yummy!! Egg (and spring) rolls are the same way, I think!
Home-made versions are (almost!) always a lot tastier than any
restaurant version, and home-made versions of nearly anything always use
more quantities of the choice "ingredients" than restaurants do, I think
(?).

I've not tried making spring rolls yet.
I'd have to go and get the larger wrappers. :-)
