Recipe Notes
- I used smooth peanut butter but if you want crunch in your dressing, use crunchy peanut butter.
- Heating up peanut butter makes it liquid and easy to mix in with the rest of the ingredients.
- Taste the dressing after mixing and add more sriracha if needed.
- Typical serving of a salad dressing is 2 tablespoons.
