Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a small bowl, combine the crab, egg yolk, onion powder, garlic powder and salt. Stir in cheese; set aside.
  2. For pastry, in a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine tomato juice and Worcestershire sauce; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead 8-10 times.
  3. Divide dough into 22 equal pieces. Pat or roll each piece into a 4-in. circle, 1/4-in. thick.
  4. Place eight circles among two greased baking sheets. Place a heaping tablespoonful of filling in the center of each circle.
  5. For fins and tails, cut six circles into fourths. Cut lines into each curved side. Place two fins and a tail on each circle on baking sheets, attaching with water. Press onto circles.
  6. In the remaining eight circles, cut scale shapes into bodies using the small end of a pastry bag coupler. Brush edges with water and place over filling; press to seal. Brush tops of pastries with egg white.
  7. Bake at 400° for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. For eyes, cut small circles out of mozzarella using the coupler; place on hot pastries with a piece of olive in the center for pupils. Garnish plates with endive and blueberries if desired.
  8. In a small saucepan, combine sauce ingredients. Cook and stir over medium heat until cheese is melted. Serve with pastries. Yield: 8 servings (2-1/2 cups sauce).
