I served this with your Deep Fried Tofu with Asian Plum Sauce and it was wonderful! The sauce is very rich and flavorful and went well with the tofu. Thanks Rita!

    A very useful sauce for dipping and marinating. Not overly heavy and not oily... a very full flavor from the sesame oil and a nice little zing from the ginger. I topped some pan seared sesame crusted tofu with the sauce and a sprinkling of red pepper flakes and WOW was it a hit! Then I marinated firm tofu in the leftover sauce and baked it (350 for 40 minutes) for a truly savory treat. A keeper.

    This was soooooo good! I made a batch of this, marinated a piece of beef brisket in it overnight (in a ziplog baggie) and then tossed everything into the crockpot. I then sliced up the beef and served some plain, and mixed some in with some sesame noodles. Major yummy experience!

    Made this to have on the side for chicken satay #24155. It was for a big family gathering, and folks raved, and many people said this dipping sauce made the dish. Tasty and easy to put together in my Braun multimix chopper. 8 Tbsp makes 1/2 cup of peanut butter, FYI. I cut back on the sesame oil just a bit (maybe 3-1/2 or 4 Tbsp) because mine is pretty strongly flavored. I also used dark brown sugar, since that's what was open. Thanks for posting!

    Pretty good and easy to make. I added red pepper flakes to the sauce while I was making it. I think next time I will put a little less peanut butter in to lighten it up a bit. Also, the recipe make a ton of sauce. I cut it down by 1/4 and still plenty of sauce for many people.

    This was really good although I cut the oil back to a total of 4T. I didn't have olive or sesame oil so used canola. It was still really good.
