PEANUT DIPPING SAUCE

Peanut Dipping Sauce image

I know there's lots of recipes for this type of sauce but this is my favorite and it's low in fat and calories. I've served this with veggies, as an appetizer, or tossed it with noodles as a main dish (Must sprinkle with plenty of cilantro!!) Recipe courtesy of the Chicago Sun-Times.

2 scallions, minced
1/3 cup vegetable stock
3 tablespoons soy sauce or 3 tablespoons tamari

Steps:

Combine peanut butter, ginger root, garlic, scallions, stock, soy sauce or tamari, vinegar, honey, cilantro and hot sauce in a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.
Check the seasoning and add more soy sauce, vinegar or honey according to your taste. The sauce should be a little sweet, sour and salty.
Serve it with veggies for dipping or toss it with noodles and garnish with LOTS (we like lots) of freshly chopped cilantro.
