Assemble the Wontons
Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture into the center of the wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, fold the wrapper over to form a triangle, and press to seal. Gather the corners of the triangle towards the center and pinch to create a purse shape. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
