Danni Rose discusses the inspiration behind the seafood potato salad from her Dig In With episode, tracing its roots to her mom’s throw-it-all-in-the-bowl cooking style. The chef breaks down some of the key ingredients like Duke’s mayo, salad cubes, and a pinch of sugar that can elevate a potato salad to "diva" status. She dishes on growing up in Birmingham, painting a rich picture of her father’s juke joint, Haywood’s Place, filled with fried food, blues music, and community. She reflects on how the dual influences of her father’s juke joint and her mother’s church potlucks inspired her first cookbook and her mission to preserve and share Black Southern culinary traditions. The chef recounts her rise to internet stardom, fueled by a viral stuffed salmon video filmed with her last $20, and driven by a desire to make comforting, accessible food for people on a budget. Danni teases the launch of her new brands, showcasing her continued evolution as a culinary entrepreneur.
