Thai-Style Peanut Sauce

Store in an airtight container. Separation is normal; stir well before using.

Thin with a little water, coconut milk, or lime juice for a pourable consistency.

Taste and adjust seasonings before serving – you might want more spice, sweetness, or acidity.

Warm gently to help flavors meld and achieve a smoother texture.

Dipping sauce for spring rolls, satay, or dumplings

Dressing for noodle salads or green salads

Sauce for grilled or roasted chicken, tofu, or vegetables

Marinade for meats and seafood

Using unsweetened peanut butter can result in a less balanced flavor profile.

Not tasting and adjusting seasoning can lead to a sauce that's too bland or too sharp.
