Peanut Sauce Recipe: Ingredients & Substitutions

• Creamy peanut butter. I suggest a natural variety that is liquid at room temperature for easy stirring. You can also use crunchy, if desired.
• Water/Coconut Milk. This sauce tastes great with both water and coconut milk.
• Rice Vinegar. Mirin is a great substitute for rice vinegar.
• Sesame Oil. I don’t suggest any substitutions for sesame oil.
• Honey. Granulated sugar works well in place of honey.
• Powdered ginger. fresh, finely minced ginger is a great substitute for powdered.

How to Make Peanut Sauce

There really isn’t much to this recipe. You just add the ingredients to a bowl and whisk them together. I’ve included a video for you just in case you need extra guidance!

Begin by simply adding the ingredients to a medium mixing bowl or 4-cup glass measuring cup.

Then, whisk them until the mixture is smooth.

If you use a peanut butter that is solid at room temperature, you may want to gently warm the ingredients to make mixing easier.

Serve

Set aside to use in your favorite recipes. We use it most often as a dipping sauce for spring rolls!

Store/Freeze

Store this peanut sauce in a glass jar with a lid for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator, or 2 months in the freezer.
