Scrape the work bowl; process 5 seconds longer. Add the peanut butter, sugar, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and tamari. Process until smooth, about 10 seconds. Scrape the work bowl. With the machine running, add the vegetable oil in a steady stream through the small feed tube. Process until emulsified, about 10 to 15 seconds. Remove and reserve. The dressing may be made up to several days ahead. Cover well and refrigerate. Allow to sit for 30 minutes at room tempera- ture before using.

Clean the work bowl. Insert the shredding disc. Arrange the radishes in the large feed tube, cut side down, and shred. Arrange the carrots horizontally in the large feed tube and shred. Insert the trimmed and peeled broccoli stem in the small feed tube and shred. Transfer the shredded vegeta- bles to a large bowl.

Insert the slicing disc. Arrange the green onions in the small feed tube and slice. Arrange the peppers in the large feed tube, cut side down, and slice. Arrange the Napa cabbage in the feed tube, cut side down, and slice. Arrange the bok choy in the feed tube and slice. Transfer the sliced vegetables to the bowl with the other vegetables. Add the broccoli florets and snow peas; toss the vegetables to combine. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat well. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the reserved chopped peanuts.

Note: You may turn this into an Asian pasta salad by doubling the dressing ingredients and adding cooked pasta (8 ounces dry, cooked according to package directions).
