- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup soy sauce

- 2 Tbsp. honey
- 1 Tbsp. sesame oil
- 1 tsp. red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp. ground ginger

Notes
*The thickness of the sauce and amount of water needed to thin out the sauce depends greatly on the kind of peanut butter used. For example, natural peanut butters are thinner than traditional peanut butters. Thicker peanut butter = more water. Thinner peanut butter = less water. Add water slowly until the desired consistency is reached.
**The sauce will thicken in the fridge due to the cool temperature. Simply pop it in the microwave for 15-20 seconds at a time (stirring in between) until the sauce becomes the desired consistency.
