Thai peanut sauce is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is commonly used as a dipping sauce for spring rolls or satay, but it can also be used as a marinade for chicken or tofu, or as a dressing for salads or noodle dishes.
Homemade Thai peanut sauce will last for about 1-2 weeks in the fridge if stored in an airtight container. It is best to use it within a week for optimal freshness and flavor.
