Authentic Homemade Peanut Sauce
This authentic homemade peanut sauce gets its robust and fresh taste from whole peanuts. If you’re looking for a flavorful peanut sauce, this is the real deal.
Like freshly ground spices, freshly ground peanuts taste more robust. Pre-ground spices lose their magic quickly; their flavors and aromas fade, and their oils degrade when exposed to air, light, and heat. The same is true for peanuts.
This sauce is ideal paired with Asian, Indonesian, and Balisian satays and shish kabobs.

Welcome to Foodie de Froid!
If you love real food, take pleasure in eating, and strive for mouth-watering flavor, you have come to the right place. Here the star of the show IS the food, presenting it in a way that makes it shine.
Tasting Experiences
We feature many appetizers and individual-sized recipes as a purposeful way to experience and share food.
Our mouth reacts to flavors in a transitional way. That first taste creates an exciting experience with the food’s intense flavors, textures, and visual appeal. Yet after the first few bites, our mouths and minds adjust, and that experience deadens.
Thus, the tasting experience! We served 14 consecutive courses at my last tasting party. Each was purposely selected to bring new flavors, textures, and presentations, creating surprises and wow moments throughout the night.
The Recipes
The recipes are documented with ingredients we love. Yet my greatest hope is to have you understand why the recipes work and eventually make them into your personal version using your favorite ingredients and presentations.
