My grandpa introduced me to peanut sauce a few years ago at a little Taiwanese restaurant that we both love in central Austin and ever since then, I’ve loved it!

After some trial and error, I figured out how to make this delicious secret sauce!

What makes this the best peanut sauce?
These are the ingredients I use and why they are so perfect:
- Peanut Butter – Base of the sauce + adds the peanut flavor, obviously haha.
- Soy Sauce – Adds saltiness and some flavor
- Teriyaki Sauce – Extra deliciousness
- Sesame Oil – Makes the sauce super creamy and smooth
- Honey – Gives a perfect added sweetness to the sauce
- Chili Paste – The perfect kick to counter the sweetness
- Warm Water – Helps the sauce come together really smoothly
