A quick and easy peanut sauce recipe, perfect for dipping spring rolls or as a flavorful complement to various Asian dishes. This creamy sauce combines the richness of peanut butter with the tang of rice vinegar and a hint of spice from sriracha, balanced by the sweetness of honey and depth of hoisin sauce.

  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

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

  1. 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.
  2. Whisk Smooth: Whisk all the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and all components are well incorporated, forming a creamy peanut sauce base.
  3. 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.
