Spicy Peanut Noodle Sauce

A five-minute sauce that turns a plain bowl of noodles into dinner — no cooking required.

INGREDIENTS

• 1/3 cup Balsam Pure Peanut Butter Spread
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tsp chili garlic sauce (or to taste)
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• Warm water, to thin

METHOD

1. Whisk the peanut butter spread with soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili garlic sauce, and sesame oil.
2. Add warm water 1 tbsp at a time until it reaches a pourable, glossy consistency.
3. Toss with warm noodles, or use as a dip for spring rolls and raw vegetables.

This sauce thickens as it sits — thin it with a little more warm water right before serving.
