This Peanut dipping sauce is one of our most versatile go-tos. We use it as a dipping sauce for spring or summer rolls, and sometimes we use it as a base for our Thai Peanut Vegetable Noodle dish. The beauty of this sauce is that it can be used as a companion for many Asian dishes, but contains no fish or shrimp sauce (unlike many American-Thai food these days). A vegan’s dream!
