NEW VIDEO: Thick Marinara Sauce

NEW VIDEO: Thick Marinara Sauce

KQ host Mitch Hightower shares his recipe for Thick Marinara Sauce. The sauce is thick because of a long cooking time that reduces the liquid. This flavorful and easy-to-make tomato-based sauce is great served over pasta, as a dip for garlic bread, as a topping for pizza and as a filling for calzone or stromboli. KQ partner Chef Philip serves as the guest taste tester for Season 4, Episode 19, Number 79. (S4E19N79-HD).

SPINACH SOUP: How I Finally Got My Family to Eat Green Leafy Vegetables
by Chef Mitch

Here at my house everyone likes soup.  Meanwhile, it's been hard to incorporate more green leafy vegetables because we are not fans of the "kale" trend.  So I made SPINACH SOUP, and my family went wild!  I made a double batch, and it still wasn't enough because it was gone in two days.  I'll be making more of this recipe for sure.

Check out the recipe and photo tutorial here:

Below: Two pounds of baby spinach is used in this recipe.

COOKING TUTORIAL: Onion Jam

COOKING TUTORIAL: Onion Jam
by Chef Mitch

Chef Philip started making this recipe about a year ago, and now we consider Onion Jam a staple that we must have available at all times.  Sweet and onion flavored, this gooey spread is great for appetizers, such as spreading on crostini or toast points.  It's also delicious on a hamburger and many other types of sandwiches.

Check out the photo tutorial for this recipe here:
