This bright, punchy sauce comes together in one bowl with creamy peanut butter, plenty of fresh lime juice, and savory tamari for deep, salty flavor. Grated ginger and a hit of red pepper flakes add warmth and a little kick, while toasted sesame oil rounds everything out with a nutty finish. Whisked with warm water until glossy and pourable, it's the kind of sauce that clings perfectly to noodles, grilled chicken, or a big bowl of crunchy veggies. A finishing touch of lime zest keeps the citrus notes front and center without needing a drop of anything fussy. It's an easy, flavor-packed sauce to keep on hand, and it fits neatly into a low FODMAP kitchen.
