Method

Caramelize the top using a blowtorch or grill and garnish with thyme.

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Cut a cross into the top of each fig and place them in a gratin dish.

Drizzle the figs with honey, butter, and thyme sprigs.

Bake the figs for 6 to 7 minutes and let them cool slightly.

Whisk egg yolks, sugar, and Sauternes in a bowl over simmering water until thickened.

Remove the sabayon from heat and continue whisking until slightly cooled.

Pour the sabayon over the figs on a serving plate.
