Damaris reveals one of her secrets to being a great restaurant chef: use interesting and unexpected spices. To show why spices matter, she takes on a typically boring dish - the salad - and transforms it into a whole meal with bold flavors and interesting textures. Highlighting easy techniques to roast vegetables, devil eggs and spice nuts, Damaris also demonstrates how to make fresh vinaigrette at home. And for an exotic complement, her savory za'atar biscuit takes Southern biscuit-making to a new level.
