In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, honey, and red pepper flakes until smooth.

Gradually whisk in warm water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency—thick for dipping, thinner for drizzling.

Taste and adjust seasoning: add more lime for brightness, soy for saltiness, honey for sweetness, or chili for heat.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. Stir before each use.
