Does anyone know of a good recipe for peanut salad dressing? I'm trying to duplicate a recipe from my favorite Thai restaurant.

Here's one I had:

Thai Peanut Salad Dressing

1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1 cup canola oil
12 packets Equal -- or 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh chili
pepper or crushed red peppers
2 tablespoon chopped green onion

Whisk together all ingredients. Serve as a dressing for spinach or as a sauce with grilled poultry or meat on noodles.

And another one I found....

Thai Peanut Salad Dressing 1

1/2 cup peanut butter
1 lime -- juiced and zested
2 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon seasoned rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey
2 cloves garlic -- roughly chopped
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro (stems and all)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt -- *see Note
2 teaspoons sriracha chili sauce -- (2 to 3) *see Note
2 tablespoons water -- (2 to 4) *see Note

NOTES : *The need for salt may differ depending on the brand of PB you use. Taste first and then add.
*I use 3 t Sriaracha, but you may want more or less depending on your preference of heat levels. Again, taste first and then add.
*Lastly, the addition of the water is purely for consistency which again, depends on the PB brand you use. Add water until you get the consistency you want, or leave it out completely.

Place everything in a blender and mix until smooth.
