The Delicious Fig Vinaigrette!


Now that figs are coming into season why not sweeten your salad up with a fresh fig vinaigrette.



6 fresh figs

1/2 cup water

1 tablespoon honey

2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon chopped basil

Cook figs in water over high heat. As figs begin to soften mash figs over heat. Cook for about 7-10 minutes continue to mash and stir. Strain fig mixture into bowl and whisk with other ingredients. Chill until ready to serve
