Hoisin Peanut Dipping Sauce (Nuoc Leo)

"This is a simplified version of the classic Vietnamese dipping sauce, usually made with fresh peanuts. This version uses peanut butter to make it simpler. Of course, hoisin sauce is a bottled Chinese condiment that will keep fresh in your refrigerator for a year. From Jim Fobel's Big Flavors."

  1. Really tasty and very close to what you would be served with fresh rolls in a Vietnamese restaurant. The peanut butter was a nice quick way to add that flavor. I could see this being great over lots of things, especially noodles.
     
  2. This was a saving grace recipe - I had made another sauce that was coconut milk with a few additions, and wasn't very good, so I strained out the veggies and used this recipe and added the coconut milk so as not to waste it and it saved my dinner! Made for ZWT 9 SE Asia by one of Mike and the Appliance Killers
