Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Creamy peanut butter
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil (toasted)
• 1 clove Garlic (minced or grated)
• 1 teaspoon Ginger (fresh, grated)
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional, for heat)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the creamy peanut butter, lime juice, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and toasted sesame oil.

Step 2

Whisk the ingredients together until smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and red chili flakes (if using) to the bowl. Stir to evenly distribute the flavors.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the vinaigrette reaches your desired consistency. It should be pourable but not too thin.

Step 5

Taste the vinaigrette and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lime juice for tanginess, honey for sweetness, or soy sauce for saltiness.

Step 6

Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for up to a week. Shake or stir before use.
