Instructions

In a bowl, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic.
Whisk the ingredients together until smooth and well combined.
Add warm water, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
If you prefer a spicy kick, stir in red pepper flakes to taste.
Taste and adjust with more honey or soy sauce, depending on your preferred sweetness or saltiness.

Serve immediately as a dipping sauce for grilled meats, vegetables, or tofu. You can also use it as a drizzle over salads or noodle bowls.

Notes

You can use creamy peanut butter for a smoother sauce or chunky peanut butter for added texture.
To make the sauce spicier, increase the red pepper flakes or add a small amount of sriracha.

This sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
