Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (unsweetened)

  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 minced garlic clove
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 24 tablespoons water (or coconut milk)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)

Instructions

  1. Gather your ingredients.
  2. Combine the peanut butter and soy sauce in a mixing bowl until smooth.
  3. Add lime juice and rice vinegar; whisk together.
  4. Drizzle in honey or maple syrup and adjust sweetness.
  5. Incorporate minced garlic and ginger; whisk until well mixed.
