Default Low sodium vegan sauces

Anybody have favorite recipies for low sodium vegan sauces.

I'm particularly interested in ginger and/or peanut
sauces......hopefully quick to make


Hm, my ginger and peanut sauces generally have soy sauce as a major
flavour component, which is no use for you. Fresh lemon or lime juice
might be a good ingredient in a peanut sauce, give it a bit of a zing
and you won't miss the salt.

What kind of sauces are you after? Salad dressings, pasta sauces,
something else? Here's a pasta sauce based on broccoli:

Broccoli Sauce
--------------
A tested recipe from
http://www.earth.li/~kake/cookery/re...oli-sauce.html
I found the original version of this recipe at the Fatfree Archives
(http://www.rahul.net/cgi-bin/fatfree/recipes.cgi). I've not changed
the basic idea; just added the quantities that I prefer, and added a
few optional extras. This is very good on pasta. Serves 2-4.

* 1 head broccoli, cooked, including peeled stems
* 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
* about 15g (1/2 oz) fresh basil
* 1/2 - 1 tsp garlic puree or pressed garlic
* Optional - a few Tbsp hummous

Put it all in the blender and whizz to a rough puree. This makes a
fairly stiff mixture; dilute with water to make a thinner consistency.
