Peanut Sauce-- Quick & Easy

Peanut Sauce can be used to dip raw veggies, drizzled on a salad, or added to a saute of colorful vegetables. The ease of making peanut sauce is soooo simple and it lasts at least a week or more also. This is also an excellant dipping sauce for my Thai Winter Rolls.

Let me know your favorite way to use peanut sauce!

Peanut Sauce

1/2 cup peanut butter

½ cup coconut milkor try coconut juice

1 tbls soy sauce (wheat free if avoiding gluten)

1 tbls rice wine vinegar

2 tsp fresh minced ginger

1 garlic cloves, minced

2 tbls sweet pepper sauce (optional- if you like it spicier)

2 tbls cilantro, minced


Whisk together all of the ingredients. Adjust the seasonings to your prefered taste and add more peanut butter or coconut milk/juice depending on how thick you like it.

Enjoy!

Hi Addie,

You may be able to make it instead with water and a pinch of sugar... or you could even try almond milk.

Let me know if you try it!

My husband and I just found your site, after searching for thai wrappers. I made this peanut sauce and served it on lettuce wraps with your beet-sweet potato slaw, and we about died it was so yummy.

So, I'm following you.

A request-suggestion: Might you put the Blogger gadget "search this blog" on your sidebar? Then when I am looking for specific food ingredients or recipes, I could find them here? :D
