SPICY PEANUT SAUCE FOR NOODLES, VEGGIES AND/OR MEAT
This is a recipe that my sister clipped out of a magazine almost 20 years ago. Despite that, it's surprisingly spicy and VERY tasty. You may want to add less chili oil if yours is very spicy, or more peanut butter if you'd like a thicker sauce.

SPICY PEANUT NOODLES
Whip up this quick, versatile peanut sauce and pair it with your favorite noodles (rice noodles, yakisoba, egg noodles, spaghetti--whatever you have on hand) for a satisfying bowl that is ready in just 15 minutes. Inspired by Chinese sesame noodles, this recipe relies on peanut butter instead of Chinese sesame paste (zhī ma jiàng) for a nutty, savory flavor, though feel free to sub in sesame paste (or use a combination of both) if you have it at home. The dish is easy to adapt: Add more chili crisp or ginger for a bolder version, a little more sugar for a sweeter sauce or a bit of water to thin it out.

Steps:
- Cook the noodles according to the package instructions.
- Meanwhile, combine the peanut butter, chili crisp, sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar and ginger in a large bowl and whisk to combine. (The sauce might look curdled, but keep whisking until smooth.)
- Drain the noodles, add them to the bowl with the sauce and toss until the noodles are nicely coated. Garnish with chopped scallions and peanuts. Add additional chili crisp if you prefer more spice.
Tips for Making the Best Peanut Sauce
- Use creamy peanut butter. Creamy peanut butter will give the sauce a smooth and rich texture. If you only have crunchy peanut butter, you can use it, but be sure to process it in a food processor until it is smooth.
- Add some heat. If you like spicy food, add some cayenne pepper or Sriracha sauce to the sauce. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Balance the flavors. The sauce should be a balance of sweet, sour, and salty. If it is too sweet, add some lime juice or vinegar. If it is too sour, add some honey or sugar. If it is too salty, add some water.
- Use fresh ingredients. Fresh garlic, ginger, and cilantro will give the sauce the best flavor. If you don't have fresh ingredients, you can use dried, but the flavor will not be as good.
- Make the sauce ahead of time. The sauce can be made up to 3 days ahead of time. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When you are ready to use it, reheat it over low heat until it is warmed through.
Conclusion
Peanut sauce is a versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is perfect for noodles, vegetables, and meat. It is also a great dipping sauce for spring rolls and satay. With its sweet, sour, and salty flavors, peanut sauce is sure to please everyone at your table.
