Fabulous Five Ingredient Peanut Dipping Sauce

Fabulous Five Ingredient Peanut Dipping Sauce

Oh how I love sauces! But they can’t be just any sauce. They have to be the RIGHT sauce. 

Fabulous Five Ingredient Peanut Dipping Sauce

I bought these beautiful hand-crafted pork and chive dumplings from an Asian market in my hood.

I steamed them and then created a dipping sauce with my “light” soy which ended up being considered light in colour, NOT light in sodium. 

It just was not right. The pork of the dumplings cried out for something sweeter and I wanted something heartier so I came up with this super simple and easy-to-make dipping sauce. The sweetness comes from the hoisin and the lusciousness comes from the peanut butter. The salt of the soy sauce and the heat from the sriracha work to balance the dipping sauce.

The Recipe

Fabulous Five Ingredient Peanut Dipping Sauce

You will need just five ingredients: 1 tsp soy sauce, 2 tsp hoisin, as much sriracha as you want, 2 tbsp peanut butter and 2 tbsp hot water.

Put the first four ingredients together in a small bowl.

Whisk in the hot water.

Whisk until smooth. If you want it thinner, feel free to add more hot water. Thicker? Add more peanut butter.

So I am adding a bit of Thai flavour to an Asian dish…

But who cares? When something tastes this good, I don’t ask questions. I just dip and eat. Yum!

    I’m saving this recipe for future use because I do enjoy a nice peanut dipping sauce. I’m also noting what brand of hoisin sauce you use, in the hope that I will like it too. I have yet to find one that tastes just right to me, but I’ve just been doing a hit-and-miss sampling of commercial brands.

    How much sriracha did you use? I ask because I know you don’t like super-spicy things and I can’t tolerate it either, so I figure if it’s spicy enough for you, it would do for me also. Looks to my eye about 1/4 teaspoon of sriracha?

      Oh good! I do hope you like it and I’m picky about hoisin too. This one is very good, never had it before and Reg also seems to like it and generally he hates hoisin. Yes, I used around 1/4 tsp and it was very subtle.

    I was wondering where her gloves went, too.

    Looks good on the sauce, Suzie.
