Another one of the great uses of peanut butter is for a peanut sauce, which is common in certain types of Asian cuisine. This is one of my favorite peanut butter recipes, and also happens to be one of my favorite shrimp recipes. The mix of spicyness with saltiness make this amazing!!

1 tbsp. ginger
2 tbsp cilantro
Juice from 1 lime

2 tbsp sugar
½ c. peanut butter
