Borage for salads

This is an excellent ingredient in nearly all
vegetable salads. Cover a champagne-bottle with raw cotton or heavy,
coarse flannel; fasten it with thread; set the bottle in a soup-plate,
and pour warm water over it. Soak a handful of borage seeds in warm
water for fifteen minutes; drain, and work them into the flannel around
the bottle, as evenly as possible. Place the bottle and soup-plate in a
warm, dark place until the seeds sprout; then bring it to the light.
Keep water in the plate constantly. When the shoots are a few inches
long, trim them off, as wanted, and add them to any salad with a plain
dressing.
