As a Dutchie I can confirm : bread with a simple satay sauce is not only delicious, over here it's one of the most common party snacks.
Woow interesting
Very true!
It's the main thing I eat when we're using the bbq haha. Also can be a great vegan option 🥰
It is a dutch thing indeed hahaha, we're even adding satay sauce to our fries 🤩
@@elisafaber5567 omg yes!!!
i love this because i feel like a lot of people, especially here in america, don’t realize how well peanut butter works in savory dishes
Peanut sauce or rather peanut satay sauce It's absolutely godly on fries or as a topping on toasted slice of bread (or roll) with some pan fried cold cut of pork topside or chicken.
I think people forget or maybe not realize that America is made up mostly of immigrants and their offspring so our pallet is far more diverse than people that stay in one community may think
Why are you so obsessed with America lmao
@@jb76489 they never were obsessed with Americans they were just saying how they don't realize how well it works in savaory dishes and not just on toast I think you have a reading problem btw
@@jb76489don't be dramatic. It's embarrassing 😅
Gado-gado is one of my favorite salad you can make with peanut butter and coconut milk. Veggies + blanched beansprouts+ boiled potatoes+ fried tofu + boiled egg + shrimp cracker with gado gado dressing is heavenly.
In Mexico we have this sauce called encacahuatado, it’s most often served with chicken and it’s basically a lot of peanuts, some chiles, tomato and sometimes sesame paste. We use whole roasted peanuts but it would be cool to see an interpretation of it with peanut butter kind of like what you did with the satay sauce. Very good recipes!
I will definitely do all 5. Videos like this are great for young learner cooks to get immediate sucesses. Salute
Jalapeño, chicken stock, peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Great base for a soup.
The peanut satay sauce is actually very versatile. Because it has such intense flavor, I always use them for salad, cold noodle, bread dipping or sometimes over rice! You can practically put it on everything!
peanut butter is literally similar to tahini , seed paste! no wonder it works well in both savory and sweet
I was about to leave a comment saying those with a peanut allergy could use tahini for these dishes instead! They are both so great for savoury and sweet
Wow didnt think about it this way! But peanut is a nut not a seed… isnt it?
@@owbahraniya500 the taste of peanut butter is very similar to tahini in my opinion tahini is just not as sweet but other than that very similar 😋
@@pollyd2094 in my opinion it’s completely different sweet or not 🤣
idk why I'm watching this when I'm allergic to peanut butter but here we are
Peanut butter is a basic for African cooking especially west african from savory dishes, to treats etc, also used as thickener, and ingredient in a number of dishes.
Culturally inexperienced cooks don't know this😕
I usually don't thin out peanut butter with water because it dilutes the flavor. Usually, I heat up the soy vinegar mixture to thin out the peanut butter.
Thank you, what a great idea! I really love peanut butter, so if I can do it without diluting the flavor, I’m all for that!
As a Filipino, I’m surprised Kare Kare didn’t end up on the list. It’s one of the first savory peanut butter dishes I was introduced to. I know ox-tails can be hard to find, but it’s a fairly easy dish and the vegetables that are commonly used with it pair well with the peanut flavor. Might be worth a shot!
Cheaper (and easier) alternatives can be made for oxtails! I’ve eaten it served with short ribs instead. Not as good, but it gets the flavor across.
for real! but its not as mainstream as the foods she created, if ever she makes a second episode for peanut butter i would love to see kare kare on it hehe
Ohh looks yum! I'm going to make it
She even doesn't include Indonesian Gado-gado.
West African peanut soup would have also been interesting
The best!!🥰
I agree!
Here in the Philippines, we have this meat and vegetables stew called kare-kare. If I remember it correctly, it's an adaptation of curry but it is distinct for using peanut butter as its base for the sauce. It's best eaten with shrimp paste. Go try it!
That sounds heavenly, thanks for sharing. I love peanuts and shrimp.
I love Kare Kare and acknowledge that as much as I would love them to actually cook it, it takes such a long time to prepare I spend like hours just softening(?) the beef
@@jesanne yes because it’s typically made with oxtails and beef tripe, which take hours to soften up. There’s also a lot of prep involved with cleaning these parts if you happen to get them from the market, where it hasn’t been previously processed. End result is very indulgent and worth it though!
@@aritin5259 I know right it is a hassle but rewarding. It's one if my favorites to eat (not to cook though). I also wasn't sure if the proper term for prepping the meat was 'softening' thanks for clearing it up! I have no idea what the quality of meats are in USA maybe it won't take too long for them to prep the beef? I don't usually make it with ox tail though since those take even longer to cook!
When I was in uni and couldn't afford much, I made Spicy Carrot, Peanut Butter and Chilli soup. The peanut butter added richness and made it taste more filling, and carrots are so cheap! I dipped a whole meal pitta in it, making an affordable and cozy winter meal 😋
I LOVE making peanut noodles and came up with my own recipe using crunchy peanut butter, honey, sriracha, and lime juice. thats it! and its sooo good. I also add cucumber, carrot, green onions, cilantro, and curry chicken if i have it.
Try the usual smooth peanut butter and roast the peanuts till they're brown and crispy for the sauce.
Hey inga! It's ironic you mentioned using this as a salad dressing because here in Sudan we actually have a peanut Butter salad and it's delicious! Check Beryl Shereshwesky's episode about peanut butter..she talked about it. Great episode as always ♥️
Dipping bread in sate sauce is so relatable 🤣 My fellow Indonesians might get freaked out if I do this in front of them, but, trust me, that left over sate sauce goes well with toast. Sometimes when I got tired of eating super crunchy kerupuk which made my jaw sore, I prefer toasting some white bread (don't use margarine on it) until it turned golden brown then dip it in leftover sate sauce from last night's dinner. Just don't forget to put in in the fridge then reheat it in the morning, or perhaps simply put it in a small container/bowl and put the bowl inside your rice cooker on warm mode. Super simple and delicious breakfast/snack.
I add peanut butter into my mapo tofu and it adds such a great nuttiness, creaminess and sweetness to it. Sort of gives off dan dan noodle vibes. It works SO WELL and it's SO GOOD!!
I've been making something like the 1st recipe for a decade now, it was a martha Stewart 'upgraded ramen' recipe when I found it. 2 Tablespoons of peanut butter and sriracha, 1 of soy sauce, added to cooked ramen noodles that have been drained. Highly recommend upping that to 3, 3, 2 - and including sauteed or dried (powder) version of garlic, ginger, paprika, and onion. Plus toasted sesame oil, gochujang, and scrambled eggs are great. Putting it on a bowl of fresh spinach or steamed broccoli is a healthy move. I could barely finish half a packet of ramen prepared this way. Make a huge batch of the peanut sauce in advance, refrigerate, and you can whip up a great meal in less than 5 minutes.
She Simmers has a great peanut sauce recipe that I've been making for years. Also recently, I've made 2 "curry" dishes with peanut butter, one Indian and one Moroccan. I've made Mexican mole with it. I have several other African recipes in my queue that use peanut butter, including a few soups. It's an amazingly versatile ingredient, and I'm feeling a bit like I've had this amazing ingredient in my house for years and have been wasting my time putting it on bread.
I'm so happy I found this video from a few months ago! I made the lovely simple peanut noodles, but I was out of chili oil so I used some Sichuan-style dou ban jang that I had open already and it was so divine! The fermented flavour and Sichuan peppercorn citrusy-numb sensation add so much depth to the dish, it feels like it should be far fancier and complicated than it is. My new favourite :)
As someone who loves sweeter flavors in savory cooking, this is awesome! thank you!! Love the condiment series!
For us who can't have coconut milk, I've found that blended cashews soaked in water has the same flavour as coconut. Would work well with the peanut butter ;)
Thanks for sharing these peanut butter noodle sauces. I have had Taiwanese cold noodles before and wanted to be able to make them myself as I don't always have access to them and have to travel to far. This is going to be great. Thanks again.
My condiment I want to see more of is coconut milk. You have an amazing knowledge of Asian cuisine - so if you could do a video explaining how to use them for savory dishes, that would be fantastic.
Made the peanut butter noodles before. Followed chinese cooking demystified's technique of frying the peanut butter in peanut oil to roast it a bit more till it's a darker brown before thinning it out with water and other condiments.
One of the best videos ever. Can't articulate what was so satisfying about it, but I think exploring condiments is a wonderful idea. I've rewatched this a bunch of times and tried out the first recipe with Lao Gan Ma(my first time!) and Skippy. So good!
cant wait to try these! especially the hot peanut noodles and the satay one! Such a great video! thank you!
i am on my lunch breaking watching this, and my microwave ramen didn’t come with a soup packet- but i had a few different types of hot sauces and some spicy roasted and shelled peanuts, and i thought, hey why not, throw it all in. surprisingly good! not as yummy as what inga made, i’m sure, but still good!
Great easy recipes w peanut butter! Thank you!!
This is a very inspiring video! I'm so excited to try all these recipes, I really like how they all seem very achievable for the timid chef.
Heck yes! Love the chili nut sauce noodles! Cold noodles are fantastic as well! The other 3 I'll have to try.
I have been encouraged to make almost all these dishes here!!! So easy and looks amazing! 🤤
i'm for sure gonna try cooking that braised pork rice recipe for dinner tomorrow! looks incredible!
I'm in love with satay sauce, so I'm SO excited to try this shortcut version!
I would love to see you try and use a Gochujang Korean chili paste or Dwenjang Korean soybean paste. It would be fun to see you experiment with strong flavored condiments that I feel people aren’t as familiar with.
I want to try cooking the spicy peanut butter noodles but there’s a cockroach in my kitchen and I’m too afraid to go in
i'm sure it'll appreciate a bowl too
Love the first recipe, quick and easy, manageable even if you don't have a lot of time
Love that your exploring ways to cook with condiments! Peanut butter.. and ketchup! Can’t wait to see your next one 😄
Inga is always inspiring! Thank you. I was also intimidated by satay, but I will definitely try your take on it, looks so yummy.
How about mustard? There are so many types! Also, I am definitely trying that satay recipe 🤤
Yes on mustard! I had a parent with a severe mustard allergy so I only ever applied it to hot dogs as a child, but now I'm playing catch up (no pun intended). Anyway, there's this spicy Bengali mustard called kasundi. I recently learned that a classic Bengali summer snack is to toss pomelo (or grapefruit) in that spicy mustard. I never would have thought of this combination, but it's so incredibly refreshing. Just had to share. :)
I have made a spicy peanut sauce for noodles for my family once. I loved it and still make it for myself years later. My family wouldn't adjust to the fact of peanut butter as a savory dish.
They all look so good!
Those all sound amazing!
Thanks Inga!! I want to make all of these dishes now!
Nice versions, I think taking a peak at how tahini is used is also a good starting point.
I will try all this recipes cause I love PB and definitely love to use it for more then just my milkshakes in the mornings.
Yes to peanut butter and cilantro as a combo! I love to put peanut butter, cilantro and a fried egg on full grain toast! Perfect with a little hot sauce. Very easy and satisfying snack!
I have similar recipes to all of these except the hot noodle one and I can CONFIRM all of these taste amazing. PB is such a beautiful condiment!
UM ALL OF THIS LOOKS AMAZING?!?!?!? Inga you’re my role model 🤩
New sub. Will definitely be attempting the Brussels sprouts recipe
Kare-kare comes to mind immediately when talking about savory dishes using peanut butter. So delicious.
such great ideas for peanut butter
I love peanut butter! Amazing video as always
Going to try them all
Wow, great!!
i could listen to her all day long what a beautiful voice just fell in love gosh haha
I tried the spicy peanut butter noodles and the satay, they are so good! The satay is delicious, I also sprinkled over some chopped roasted peanuts and crispy onions to give it even more oomph 🥰 I also can't blame you whatsoever for just dipping bread in that sauce...
Yeah we do the same here with dipping the bread with satay sauce, you're doing fine there Inga!
so helpful!
One of my favourite recipes is a savoury peanut butter toast... On a multigrain bread add a generous amount of caramelized onion top it with salt pepper n sriracha sauce... !!! You'll never go back after this
I never really enjoyed peanut butter in sweets but really love the satay sauce version we have here in the Philippines. Now, I have a lot more options on how to incorporate PB in savory dishes! ❤️🥜
I loved hearing that you do that with the bread. When I make macaroni and cheese I purposely use less pasta than is required so that when the dish is done it has an extra layer of cheese sauce on the top. I will then stand at my stove with bread, deli ham and cooked potato putting pieces of these items on a fork and dipping them in that top layer of extra cheese sauce as if it is fondue and it is one of my favorite meals.
I LOVE PEANUT BUTTER ADDED TO MY MEAL THANKS FOR SHARING
been having a whole 100% peanuts peanut butter jar in my cupboard for month not knowing what to do with it… i needed this video
Thanks for the video, Inga! Those all look delicious! For peanut noodles, I like using the 'NOLS Gado Gado' recipe. (For the sauce; I don't use ramen noodles. lol)
The peanut butter chilli oil noodles are everything 🤩🤩🤩
Love ur way of thinking! Totally subscribed! Do u know how to make the dumpling dipping sauce? Would love ur home-made take on this particular recipe. Thanx!
I love the peanut sauce that’s given with summer rolls 🥰 don’t know exactly what it is but complements it so well also with the chili sauce 😭
The braised pork dish reminded me a lot of Adam Ragusea's "weeknight pork mole" video. Sort of reverse engineering a dish by starting with knowing what you want it to taste like, and using different, less traditional ingredients and methods to get a similar result a little easier. I love it!
I recently started adding peanut butter and garlic chili sauce to ramen and it is so good!!!
Now this is an episode!
Inga’s first sauce is also an excellent homemade hot pot dipping sauce option 😉
A peanut noodle recipe I like similar to #1 adds two toppings: persian cucumbers with lime juice and fried tempeh. Which brings in the brightness and meatiness and makes it like a whole meal.
celery with peanut butter inside is amazing
I tried the cold noodles and oh boy IT IS GOOD! It almost taste like gado-gado but super light and refreshing ❤️ 🍜
Inga! I made 2 of these today! The peanut butter noodles and the braised pork rice! They were delicious! I'd highly recommend adding green onions and some roasted peanuts to the braised pork. Amazing! ❤
P.S. Could you post the recipe next time? As a beginner cook, I found it difficult to wing it on these recipes. 😆
Thai people usually dip toasted white bread with satay sauce. You’re eating it the right way! Good sense!
The noodles can be upgraded easily with garlic, ginger and some miso paste. Anyways, fun video enjoyed it a lot
I love making Pra Ram whenever I'm in the mood for some peanut butter driven dishes :D
I made both the braised pork rice and spicy peanut butter noodles and they were both incredible. I made a pork topping like you would use for Dan Dan Noodles for the peanut butter noodles and definitely going to make both again. The peanut butter did provide a nuttiness to the braised pork and did accelerate the process, and it even reheats well in the microwave so I can use it for a work meal!
I cook a large amount of peanut butter (1/2 c) in my Pad Thai. It's so good!
You can try adding around a tablespoon of minced/crushed pineapple into the satay sauce after the sauce is cooked (so it becomes like a yellow circle in the middle of the brown peanut sauce), it's quite common in Singapore satay sauce and it helps to cut the richness and gives another dimension of flavour.
wow, this really makes me wish i didn't have a (pea)nut allergy - all these recipes look so delicious!
😂 When I heard you add chocolate in curry I instantly thought about 美味天王 and the chef nudging 秦蘇蘇 about adding coffee to curry. 😅
An awesome Peruvian dish that uses peanut butter is Carapulcra”. It’s stew of pork or chicken (or both) with papa seca (dried potatoes) in a peanut butter (old version uses grounded peanuts) with Aji Panca chilli pepper paste.
I've grown a nut allergy but, I know my friends and family haven't! Thanks for the great video Inga hehe I'm gonna show them this later :D
I wish you had tried Sudanese peanut butter salad, it is very simple and tastes really good with fresh pita bread
Bread + Cucumber + Sate Sauce is a classic combination 🥰🥰
Kare-Kare (a Filipino style of oxtail stew with veggies, in a garlicy peanut butter sauce, garnished with salted shrimp paste) and served over rice, I believe, really deserves to be explored.
When I was young, I was thought a simple satay recipe. It's just peanut butter, milk, sambal oelek and garlic powder. Been making that for years and it's a hit at every BBQ I go to😁
Inga, you should really try salad with peanut sauce! In Indonesia, we called it Pecel Madiun which consist veggies with peanut sauce. There is also another dish named Gado-gado!
I love peanut butter and definitely gonna make these dishes
Ooo! Ooo! Do Lingham's Hot Sauce! I like to drizzle it on a naan pizza (with some pesto & olive oil for good measure) along with standard ingredients. Also really nice with a roasted/grilled chicken (add guacamole/avocado, lime)
definetely try out the noodles, you can also just use pasta, at least i like that version best by now. I tweaked my version to my preference: 1st: exchange 1/3 of the peanut butter with tahina/sesame paste - much more complex flavour highly recommend balancing it out with grated ginger, garlic, and some acid like lime then a fried/soft boiled egg+ scallions +whatever vegetables you got
My favourite food combo ever is peanut butter and chocolate but I'm up to trying using peanut butter in savory dishes as well😋
"eXpecially" is one of my biggest pet peeves, it's like "liberry"😭
Great video!
I have a ton of eating restrictions because of chronic illness, and I started making spicy peanut noodles (of my own variety) because my list of what I could eat was so limited. One thing I did differently was instead of hot water I used a milk substitute (either rice milk or almond milk) to mix with the sauce which made it far creamier than water. It gave the sauce a bit more of a creamy macaroni and cheese consistency which was really, really good.
