10. 10

    If it's a pain, you can go ahead and just keep it intact and put the ear bits on top!

    For the light part of the ear, make a thin slice of the fish sausage (if you're using ham, but use the ham as-is) and cut out the ear pieces.

    If using the crab sticks for the ears, then take the pieces you cut out in Step 7, turn them upside down, and attach to the ears.

    Don't forget to make the cut in the ear!
