A rich, creamy, and slightly spicy sauce perfect for noodles, salads, bowls, or dipping.

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup natural creamy peanut butter

• 2 teaspoons organic minced ginger

• 1 tablespoon agave nectar

• 1 1/2 tablespoons Tamari (or soy sauce if not gluten-free)

• 1 teaspoon lime juice

• 1/2 teaspoon tahini

• 2 tablespoons to 1/4 cup hot water (adjust for consistency)

• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, ginger, agave nectar, Tamari, lime juice, and tahini until smooth.

2. Gradually add hot water, starting with 2 tablespoons and whisking until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

3. If using, stir in the cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.

4. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed—more lime for tang, more Tamari for saltiness, or more agave for sweetness.

Tips

• Sauce thickens as it cools—just add a splash of warm water to loosen it up.

• Keeps in the fridge for 3-5 days. Shake or stir before using.
