Peanut Sauce and the low FODMAP diet
Peanut sauce blends peanut butter, soy, vinegar, and spices to create a rich and creamy topping. Pure peanut butter contains negligible fermentable carbohydrates and remains highly compatible with sensitive digestion. Commercial preparations frequently add onion powder, garlic extract, or high-fructose stabilizers to enhance flavor depth and stabilize texture. Those managing ITS should verify ingredient simplicity before incorporating into recipes. Preparing a homemade version ensures consistent symptom management.

What can change the result?
Whisk natural peanut butter with tamari, rice vinegar, and freshly grated ginger to create a balanced and gut-friendly base. Avoid commercial jars that list onion powder or garlic extract near the top of the ingredient panel to maintain purity. Simmer gently over low heat and stir frequently to prevent separation and maintain smooth consistency.
