Potato Soup Italian Style image

This recipe is truly a family favorite. I don't know any one else that makes this. I think my father-in-law invented it. When people had little money they used whatever was at hand. My father used to say 'one will never starve if they have potatoes, onions, and a loaf of bread.' This is a typical peasant recipe that was made when times were not as affluent as they are today. Really good on a cold snowy day.

Overall, this soup was a disappointment. The texture was not as creamy as I would have liked, and the flavor was lacking. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had added more salt and pepper, and maybe some additional herbs or spices.

I love this potato soup! It's so creamy and flavorful, and the pancetta and Parmesan cheese add a nice salty and savory flavor. I always make a double batch so I can have leftovers for lunch the next day.
