1/2 cup peanut butter natural, unsweetened
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce use tamari or coconut aminos for gluten free
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar (half if using sweetened peanut butter)
2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce more or less to taste
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
3 garlic cloves pressed or grated
1 tablespoon ginger root grated
2-4 tablespoons warm water
Combine all ingredients except water. Whisk to fully combine.
Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached. About 2 tablespoons for a sauce, and up to four if using it for a dressing.
I use unsweetened peanut butter. If you use conventional peanut butter the sauce may turn out too sweet. Try reducing the brown sugar to 1 tablespoon.
