Steps:
- Place sorghum syrup in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add orange zest, thyme sprigs, and pinch of salt. Simmer sorghum mixture for 1 minute. Add figs. Continue to simmer, gently stirring occasionally, until figs are soft but still hold their shape, 5-10 minutes, depending on firmness of figs. Let jam cool. DO AHEAD: Jam can be made 2 weeks ahead. Transfer to a jar. Cover and chill.
FIG JAM WITH ROSEMARY
Ripe figs lend their subtle sweetness to this chunky jam. Lemons add a necessary sparkle, and fresh rosemary balances the tanginess. You can substitute other woodsy herbs, such as thyme, marjoram or oregano, or add spices, such as black pepper, but additional seasonings should complement rather than overpower the figs. This jam involves little preparation but yields tasty results: Use it as a spread for warm toast, to serve alongside salty cheese or as a topping for meat dishes.

Steps:
- Place the figs in a 4-quart heavy-bottomed pot. Pour in 1 1/2 cups water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the figs soften and the liquid begins to thicken, about 10 minutes.
- Add the rosemary and sugar, and stir until the sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the syrup thickens, the figs are mostly broken down and the jam goes from a rapid boil to slow bubbles, about 25 minutes. Remove and discard the rosemary.
- Stir in the lemon zest and juice and kosher salt. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for another minute for a runnier jam or up to 8 minutes if you prefer a thicker jam. Taste and adjust with more lemon juice and salt as needed. (Adding lemon juice will thin the jam, but it does thicken as it cools.) The jam should be sweet and tart with a hint of fresh rosemary.
- Transfer to sterilized jars and can, or cool to room temperature, then store in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks.

Tips:
- Choose ripe figs: The riper the figs, the sweeter and more flavorful the jam will be.
- Use fresh rosemary: Fresh rosemary will give the jam the best flavor, but you can also use dried rosemary if you don't have any fresh.
- Don't overcook the jam: The jam is done when it has thickened and reached a spreadable consistency. Overcooking the jam will make it too thick and sticky.
- Let the jam cool completely before storing it: This will help the jam to set properly.
- Store the jam in a cool, dark place: The jam will keep for up to 6 months in a cool, dark place.

Orange, rosemary, and fig jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, crackers, or even ice cream. It's also a great way to use up ripe figs. With its unique flavor and beautiful color, this jam is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
