About Peanut sauce

Peanut sauce is a rich and creamy condiment often associated with Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly Indonesian, Thai, and Malaysian dishes. Made primarily from ground peanuts or peanut butter, it typically incorporates ingredients like coconut milk, soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, ginger, and chili for a balance of sweet, salty, tangy, and spicy flavors. Peanut sauce is commonly used as a dip for satay, spring rolls, or drizzled over salads and noodle dishes. Nutritionally, it provides protein, healthy fats, and dietary fiber from peanuts, while offering vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin E and magnesium. However, it can be calorie-dense and high in sodium, depending on preparation. Moderation is key to enjoying its flavor and versatility without exceeding daily intake goals.
