It is not known when it was first made. However, potatoes were not used in soups in Spain until Napoleon's invasion, so it was not until at least the 19th century that this dish was eaten there. It is also said that Chef Paul Bocuse tasted this stew in a famous winery, and after three servings, told everybody that Riojan style potatoes were the best food he had ever eaten. The chef also recommended this dish to be the national dish of Spain. Rioja style potatoes are usually served in the areas of Alava and Rioja.
