Secrets in the Kitchen Marinara Sauce by Brian J. Lowney
If you haven’t yet tasted Karen Greene’s delicious Secrets in the Kitchen marinara sauce, be prepared for a healthy taste sensation that will be enjoyed by the entire family. Greene, a Barrington resident and retired teacher assistant in the Providence public schools, created the sauce based on a family recipe at Hope and Main kitchens in Warren and offers the product at small stores throughout the region and at farmer’s markets. She’s produced the sauce for the past eight years and continues to attract a strong loyal following for customers who enjoy good, healthy food. “I grew up cooking with my mom,” Greene begins. “We cooked on Sundays. We got together and everyone was there. No one was exempt.” The entrepreneur adds that growing up in a Lebanese family in Fox Point, she enjoyed the food and friendship of Irish, Portuguese, Cape Verdean, Italian and other nationalities in the bustling and closely-knit neighborhood. “I learned what my grandfather Samuel Simon used to cook,” Greene recalls. “He came from Lebanon where he was a cook for his family. He was a builder here when he came to this country and he was fine carpenter and good cook.
