Yogurt with Figs, Honey, and Pine Nuts

This recipe comes from Bon Appetit contributed by Anissa Helou. If you like figs, this is special! It's warm and creamy and sweet and crunchy and just wonderful. Any middle eastern food shop worth its salt will have rose water and it's pretty cheap.

INGREDIENTS
3 tablespoons pine nuts
¼ cup honey
½ teaspoon rose water or orange-flower water
3 cups plain Greek yogurt
16 fresh figs, halved

Toast pine nuts in a dry small skillet over medium-low heat, tossing often, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Immediately transfer to a plate.

Heat honey and rose water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until very runny, about 1 minute (do not let boil); let cool.

Serve yogurt and figs drizzled with warm honey mixture and topped with pine nuts.
