Notes

For a thicker sauce: Add it to a saucepan and heat it on low-medium heat. The sauce will thicken as some of the liquid evaporates.
Peanut butter substitute: Almond butter, cashew butter, sunflower seed butter, or tahini.
More flavor: If you have time, rest the sauce for 15-20 minutes before serving.
Leftovers: Keep in the fridge for one week.
