Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, combine all Crab Mixture ingredients. Mix gently to combine.
Unfold the Puff Pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface.
Cut the puff pastry into 24 equal squares.
Place a spoonful of the Crab Mixture in the center of each square.
Fold the corners of each square towards the center, pinching to seal. Alternatively, fold over to create a triangle.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Egg Wash ingredients.
