How Do You Make Peanut Sauce From Scratch?
This is a real basic recipe that won’t require you to break the bank or maybe even leave your house. We all know Thai grocers are sometimes hard to come by and that adding to your exotic spice rack can be quite costly. For those of you who love Pad Thai, this probably won’t be a substitute for an authentic plate of noodles, but it will certainly suffice for a simple, cozy meal at home. Spoon the peanut butter into a bowl. If it came directly from the fridge, give it a moment to approach room temperature. Add the warm water and mix it with the peanut butter.
