Mom's potato soup is a traditional dish that has been part of home cooking in several Latin American countries for generations. Its origin dates back to homemade recipes that incorporated simple and accessible ingredients, such as potatoes and eggs, to create a comforting and nutritious meal. In different Latin American countries, this soup may have various names; for example, in Mexico and Central America, it is known simply as potato soup, while in some parts of South America it may be called "potato broth" or "creamy potato soup with egg." The preparation usually varies slightly according to local customs, but it maintains the essence of a creamy and hearty soup that evokes the warmth of home and maternal care.
