Peanut Sauce

No picture here, though you can see a smudge of the sauce in my picture for the Roasted Fish Wrapped in Spring Rolls post. This recipe will come in handy for almost anything you can think to dip in peanut sauce, so check it out! Trang's recipe below.

Ingredients:

3 TBSP peanut butter
4 TBSP hoisin sauce
5 TBSP sweetened vinegar*

* Sweetened Vinegar Recipe:
16 parts water
8 parts granulated sugar
5 part vinegar
These ingredients should be brought to a boil, so that the sugar dissolves. Also, this sweetened vinegar can be made in a large batch ahead of time, and stored in the pantry, as it comes in handy for several different recipes.

Instructions:
In a blender, combine peanut butter, hoisin sauce, and sweetened vinegar. Blend until smooth.
Your sauce is ready to serve! You can optionally top the sauce with some ground roasted peanuts if desired.

  1. For the sweetened vinegar recipe, can you add the instruction that these ingredients should be brought to a boil, so that the sugar dissolves? Also, this sweetened vinegar can be made in a large batch ahead of time, and stored for in the pantry, as it comes in handy in several different recipes.

    Thanks!
