In a medium saucepan, combine the figs, orange zest, orange juice, brown sugar, lavender, and salt. Bring to boil over medium-high heat. If using fresh figs, mash with potato masher. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. If using dried figs, now you can mash with a potato masher or pulse in a food processor. Refrigerate the jam for at least 20 minutes before serving.
