  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice, plus more as needed
  • 1 tablespoon agave nectar or maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons Fusia Soy Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed with a press or grated
  • Water as needed

Instructions

  • Add the peanut butter to a bowl, along with the red pepper flakes, lime juice, agave or maple syrup, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Whisk well to combine. Season to taste with a pinch of salt. Taste, adding more of the sesame oil as desired. Add more lime juice for tang, agave for sweetness, or red pepper flakes for more heat.
