A delicious combination of flavors in this sacha inchi peanut dressing will turn any salad into an Asian delight. The mildly nutty sacha inchi is an excellent source of protein and fiber, which makes it an ideal addition to vegetarian and vegan dishes. Peanuts are famous for being heart-healthy thanks to their richness in mono- and polyunsaturated fats as well as omega-3 and 6 fatty acids. What gives this Asian salad dressing a unique character are its flavorful ingredients, such as ginger, garlic, and limes, all of which also possess strong anti-inflammatory properties.
