Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 clove minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
- 4 tablespoons water
- 0.25 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, add the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, and lime juice.
Whisk the ingredients together until smooth and fully combined.
Add the minced garlic, minced fresh ginger, and chili flakes (if using). Mix well to incorporate.
Gradually whisk in water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved. For a thicker dip, use less water; for a thinner dressing, add more.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add more soy sauce for saltiness, honey for sweetness, or lime juice for tanginess.
Transfer the finished dressing/dip into a serving bowl or jar. Serve immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to one week.
