| "Traditionally borage was cultivated for culinary and medicinal uses, although today commercial cultivation is mainly as an oilseed. The seed oil is desired as source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), for which borage is the highest known plant-based source (17-28%)... Borage is used as either a fresh vegetable or a dried herb. As a fresh vegetable, borage, with a cucumber-like taste, is often used in salads or as a garnish... The flower...has a sweet honey-like taste and is one of the few truly blue-colored edible substances... Although often used in soups, one of the better known German borage recipes is the Green Sauce (Grüne Soße) made in Frankfurt." \\ | "Traditionally borage was cultivated for culinary and medicinal uses, although today commercial cultivation is mainly as an oilseed.

| "Borago officinalis rosette leaves were sampled in the region of Amdoun (Tunisia) during different stages of their development. Essential oil contents varied from 0.01% to 0.13% respectively in young and adult leaves. Twenty three volatile compounds were identified. Hydrocarbons, mainly represented by nonadecane (29.8%), tetracosane (11.3%) and heptacosane (4.7%), constituted the major class in the young leaves (45.8%), followed by aldehydes (22.4%). The percentages of these two classes decreased to reach respectively 15% and 8.1% in adult leaves in favour of alcohols (57.9%) where cis-3-hexenol (29.6%) and hexanol (14.5%) were the main compounds." \\ | "Borago officinalis rosette leaves were sampled in the region of Amdoun (Tunisia) during different stages of their development.
