Crab empanadas are not going to happen, at least right now.  The annual Dungeness Crab season probably won't happen due to many factors, Mot her Nature, the annual price wars between the processors and the fishermen and women, and then this year, Covid.  Covid has impacted the canners, processors and some of the boats.  I might do crab empanadas with another type of crab in the next week if something looks fresh.  But onward to other savory filled pastries.

 

Yup like every food processing industry. Would make me "crabby". A nice fat King Crab leg or 2 would yield nice firm flesh and is generally on sale for holiday feasting. The pricing well that is ongoing I think.

 

I was reminded of two simple fillings  When my sister the cheese nut (nicknamed Weisse Maus -white mouse as a child - had white blond hair) saw me do the phyllo triangles she grabbed some Brie from fridge, dolloped with leftover cranberry and folded it up to bake. Tasty snack. Heathen Heidi has used tuna salad as a filling. Just generic water pack. A few peas for a pop or craisins for sweet texture contrast are usually in my mix.
