Dessert Vinaigrette For Figs image

Vinaigrettes lend lightness and sparkle to food, but they generally land before the dessert course. But here, a warm orange vinaigrette livens up figs for a light and delicious dessert. This easy recipe, which was inspired by one from Michael Moorhouse, the pastry chef at Blue Hill at Stone Barns, comes together quickly.
