Borage use as a culinary herb

Title: FW: Seeding, a winter sport-was favorites that shouldn'tbe
Talking about borage... in my country garden it is endemic, and happily spreads everywhere (and is welcome everywhere!) so I've taken to use it in the kitchen. The flowers, easily deprived of the hairy bracts, have a fresh taste of cucumber, and give an excellent flavour to spring salads. And, the young leaves, boiled and cut into small pieces, can be either tasted simply with a drerssing of olive oil, or added with spinach and other herbs used to infill some home made pastas or pies. Any other use? Helene?
