Morphology
The meaning 'firmly established or originating from' is directly derivable from combining 'rooted' (having roots; firmly established) with the preposition 'in' (indicating source or location). The plant-root metaphor for origin or foundation is common cross-linguistically and follows standard compositional patterns, so a B1 learner who knows the constituent words will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Rooted in comes from the picture of a tree: its strong roots hold it in the soil and feed it. So when something is rooted in an idea or an experience, it grows from that source and stays firm, which is why it means 'firmly established' or 'coming from'.
