Borage Cress
Young borage, as fresh as cucumber, as briny as oyster.
Borage Cress is the young shoot of borage, with fleshy, slightly downy leaves. Its clean, refreshing taste recalls cucumber, with a saline finish reminiscent of oyster. It naturally accompanies seafood and brings freshness to cold dishes.
