Notes
- Soy sauce: Substitute soy sauce for a gluten-free variety, or for Tamari sauce.
- Nuts: Use almond or cashew butter if needed
- Sweetener: Use a non-nutritive sweetener such as stevia extract.
- Prep-Ahead: Homemade peanut sauce can be prepared up to 3-4 days in advance, however the sauce will gradually start to lose some of its flavor over time.
- Storage: Prepared peanut sauce can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Leftover sauce can be frozen in an airtight, freezer-safe container for up to 4-6 months.
- Reheating: Stored peanut sauce may be left out on the counter for an hour before serving, or microwaved in the oven for 10-20 seconds to make it smooth and creamy.
