In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, and maple syrup (or honey) until smooth and creamy.
If too thick, add warm water 1 teaspoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.
Taste and adjust: add more soy sauce for saltiness or more syrup/honey for sweetness as needed.

Add a pinch of crushed red pepper or Sriracha for spice.

Stir in lime juice or rice vinegar for tanginess.

Incorporate garlic powder or grated ginger for depth.

Swap peanut butter with sunflower-seed butter for a nut-free option.

Add coconut milk for extra creaminess.
