{"product_id":"southern-roots-1","title":"Southern Roots","description":"Mama Dip’s Kitchen, the iconic regional restaurant in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, was founded by Mildred “Mama Dip” Council in 1976 with $64 saved up from working as a cook for local white families. Mildred’s children, including her youngest daughter, Anita “Spring” Council, grew up in the restaurant, spending time as dishwashers, waiters and short-order cooks. They continue Mama Dip’s legacy today, with Spring at the helm of the original restaurant, which continues to be a pillar of the local community. In 100 delicious recipes grounded in oral recipe–sharing traditions, Spring brings an updated and thoughtful approach to classic Southern food.\n\n\nSouthern Roots provides a window into the vibrant story of an African American community and the powerful legacy of a large, loving and hardworking entrepreneurial family who made many sacrifices to succeed.","brand":"WW Norton \u0026 Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55883401920856,"sku":"9781324111320","price":28.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781324111320_e8291c28-24a8-40e3-9ba2-76cf41b4f686.jpg?v=1778027430","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/southern-roots-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
