CHEF JOHN'S CRAB RANGOON
While not 'authentic,' these crispy crab and cream cheese wontons are one of the most addictive, delicious, and crowd-pleasing appetizers ever created. That is, if the filling has enough crab in it. I'm using a 1 to 1 ratio of crab to cream cheese.

Steps:
- Mix cream cheese, crab meat, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, fish sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, sesame oil, and cayenne pepper together with a fork until ingredients are blended thoroughly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, 1 or 2 hours.
- Keep wonton wrappers moist by covering with a damp paper towel. Place a small bowl of water nearby on the work surface. With a wet fingertip, moisten surface of wonton. Place 1 1/2 teaspoons of crab filling in center of wonton. Fold 2 opposite corners toward each other over the filling but without touching tips together yet. Fold up the other 2 corners. Working gently from the bottom, squeeze out any air bubbles; pinch together the 4 seams from the bottom up to create a modified pyramid (or "warhead") shape. Place on a dry surface. Continue with remaining wontons.
- Heat oil in deep fryer to 350 degrees F. Fry wontons in batches until golden brown and crispy, gently moving them around in the oil with a strainer to brown each surface, about 3 minutes. Let cool about a minute before eating. Serve with the dipping sauce.
- Whisk ketchup, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and sriracha sauce together in a bowl for the dipping sauce.

Steps:
- 1. In a small pot take the soy sauce, orange juice, and plum jam and simmer until completely melted. Add the orange zest and set it aside.
- 2. Blend cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the lump crab meat and 1 Tbsp of dry salad dressing mix. Blend well. Set to the side.
- 3. Take a wonton and place one teaspoon of filling in the center.
- 4. In a small bowl make the egg wash by beating together 1 egg and 3 Tbsp water. Wet the edges of the wonton with the egg wash mixture. Fold over like a triangle and seal. Repeat until you have enough to fry (10-15). Repeat this action until you are out of filling.
- 5. Heat oil, to 350 - 375 degrees, in a deep-fryer or deep skillet. Drop a few wontons into oil one at a time and fry until golden brown, turning once.
- 6. Take the cooked Rangoon and place it on napkins to remove the excess oil.
