  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>Several Asian cultures make a version of peanut sauce. This one may not be the most authentic, but it&#8217;s really, really good. Serve it as a dipping sauce, over cold noodles, tossed in a salad, or with our <a href="http://www.chow.com/recipes/10641">summer rolls</a>.</p>


	<p><strong>What to buy:</strong> Look for hoisin sauce and chile-garlic paste in the Asian section of your supermarket. For the chile paste, we prefer the one made by Huy Fong Foods (with the rooster on the jar!).</p>


	<p><strong>Game plan:</strong> You can make this sauce a day ahead. Just keep it refrigerated in a covered container. Let it sit for a bit at room temperature before serving.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[<ol>
	<li>Combine all ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Stir until well combined, adding more water to thin the sauce if necessary.</li>
	</ol>


	<p><strong>Note:</strong> We like to use natural peanut butter for this recipe. If you use the conventional kind, add less sugar to the sauce.</p>]]>
