Tips:
- Choose high-quality crab meat. Fresh or frozen crab meat works best, and avoid using canned crab meat as it often contains fillers and preservatives.
- Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of cheeses, such as cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese, adds flavor and richness to the crab triangles.
- Add herbs and spices for extra flavor. Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika are all great additions to crab triangles.
- Don't overfill the wonton wrappers. Too much filling will make the crab triangles difficult to fold and seal.
- Seal the wonton wrappers tightly. This will prevent the filling from leaking out during frying or baking.
- Fry or bake the crab triangles until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through and crispy.
- Serve the crab triangles with your favorite dipping sauce. Ranch dressing, tartar sauce, or sweet and sour sauce are all popular choices.

Crab triangles are a delicious and versatile appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a variety of recipes to choose from, you can find the perfect crab triangles to suit your taste.
