Essentially, this is just a peanutty vinagrette dressing that I made in the
food processor. I added the liquid ingredients first, until it looked like
the right mix of oil to acidic liquids (rice vinegar and lime juice). Then
I added the rest of the ingredients and processed for a few seconds. From
there I just went by appearance and taste, adding more liquid or peanut
butter to get the right consistency, and more of each of the other
ingredients for other various characteristics– sweetness, saltiness,
acidity, spiciness. We served the salad dressing on the side with the
salad, and provided extra chopped peanuts, cilantro, and green onions to
let people add their own to taste.
