I created this recipe for Almond Butter Dipping Sauce for “foodie week” at my daughter’s summer camp last year.
The children learned how to make Fresh Vietnamese Spring Rolls with this Almond Butter Dipping Sauce, which they served out of hand-made “food trucks” to the parents at the end of the day.
This dipping sauce is vegan and gluten free, using coconut milk, almond butter, tamari or coconut aminos, ume plum vinegar, lime juice, and coconut palm sugar.
