BORAGE SOUP
This dark green soup may be served hot or cold, but served cold is perfect for summer dinner parties or that extra special picnic. Both borage flowers and leaves are edible. Because it is a tonic plant for the adrenal glands, borage provides an invaluable support for a stressful lifestyle. Borage is rich in minerals, especially potassium. From Mary Lawrence & Jane Newdick, The Miniature Book of Flowers as Food, Crescent Books, 1991. Cooking time is chilling time.
