Aragonese a region in northern Spain, make salad out of Borage. Borage or starflower is a bluish white flower and high in gamma-linolenic acid – GLA .
- Cook borage leaves and sautéed with garlic and parsley is the way they do it in Spain. You can add Borage flowers in a circle around the dish as a garish. It goes well with Potatoes.
- Alternatively the following ingredients can be added: Alternative mixed greens, paprika, cucumbers.
- Borage seeds which were soaked in champagne.
- Dressing made of apple cider vinegar and olive oil (or borage oil) with Rosemary, oregano and thyme.
- If you like a heavy salad you can add onions, red peppers and creamy based dressing.
I know this recipe seems light on instructions but let’s be honest, borage is a herb/green and the way you serve it is more dependent on your conception of what a salad should taste like. I prefer light with fewer ingredients.
