Ingredients
Peanut Sauce Ingredients
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon sriracha (optional, to taste)
- 1/3 cup warm water (adjust as needed)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, add the creamy peanut butter, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sriracha if you like a touch of heat.
- Whisk Smooth: Whisk all the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and all components are well incorporated, forming a creamy peanut sauce base.
- Adjust Consistency: Gradually add warm water, one tablespoon at a time, whisking after each addition until the sauce reaches your preferred consistency for dipping or drizzling.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of sriracha based on your spice tolerance or omit it entirely for a milder sauce.
- If you prefer a thinner sauce, add more warm water a little at a time until desired thickness is achieved.
- This sauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to one week; stir well before serving.
- Use natural peanut butter for a healthier option, but the sauce may be less creamy.
- Great as a dip for spring rolls, grilled meats, or drizzled over salads and noodles.
