Fresh figs are so beautiful and flavorful, sometimes the simplest preparation is best. Here, a simple orange-infused honey and a bit of yogurt allows their flavor to shine. It only takes a brief stint in the microwave to gently warm the honey and completely infuse it with the flavor of the orange zest. Use any kind of honey you like, keeping in mind that the general rule is that the darker the color, the stronger the flavor. These figs make a wonderful dessert, but it is equally perfect to serve for breakfast, perhaps with a little more yogurt.
