LOVE this!! You wont believe the first time I had a savoury peanut butter sauce was - when I tried your recipe for soba noodle salad. I have lost count of how many times I have made that for dinner!! Thank you for sharing this recipe.

I agree that this is absolutely the best peanut sauce! Adding a squeeze of lime juice makes it extra good.

Oh my this peanut sauce looks delicious! I would love to have it with rainbow rolls!

Ashley,
You can leave out the chili paste and it still tastes great. I do this all the time because I am allergic to the nightshade family (peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant).

Made this yesterday. Pretty darn good. Tip - be sure and use LOW SODIUM soy sauce as stated in the recipe. I did not and it came out way too salty.  Prolly should've cut the SS with some water.

This is the first recipe I tried, and I didn't even do a good job. I was making tilapia bowls and I usually make a sriracha cream sauce for the top.  But...somebody cleared out the sriracha, so I had to find a quick backup.  I didn't have any rice vinegar or chili paste, so I used water instead. It was still killer, bowl licking yummy.  Can't wait to try the recipe as written, at least once a week!

Came here to fix a peanut sauce recipe I found off another blog (one of the first google search results). Added the rice vinegar and sesame oil, what a difference they make! Will def check here for everything first now, haha.

Can confirm- this is THE VERY BEST peanut sauce! I didn't add sugar because my pb already had sugar in it. Otherwise made as directed--and it was perfect!

This tastes so bad. I threw it out. Sesame oil is wrong in peanut sauce.

Way too much sesame oil. That’s all I taste!

I’m sorry to say this didn’t do it for me. It’s missing something or the quantities are not right. I feel bad saying that but it’s what I think.

There’s 2 kinds of peanut sauce I’ve had: one is the amazing sweet kind they have at Thai restraints &amp; one is that stuff out of the bottle that sucks. This is the recipe for the kind out of the bottle.  :(
