Its leaves, flowers and stalks are edible and taste a little like cucumber. Borage leaves are good in salads, yoghurt or cream cheese mixtures, or served with shellfish.”

Anyway, watch as Arthur and Dick make a masterpiece omelette while Dorothy waits [impatiently] for her breakfast to be served.  Click to watch Arthur’s creative recipe https://thechateau.tv/chateau-updates/flower-omelette and see if it’s a hit with his sister!  Clearly Arthur is following in his Master Chef Father’s footsteps!

Why not give it a try and let us know how it comes out?
