What makes head trotter atom soup different from regular kelle paça soup?

What does “atom” mean in head trotter atom soup?

What is Head trotter atom soup?
Head trotter atom soup is a fiery, hearty take on Turkish kelle paça: a broth made by slowly simmering an animal’s head and feet until the meat is tender and the stock is rich. “Atom” commonly refers to a hot pepper-and-butter topping, though the exact preparation varies between soup shops.
In Turkey, it is especially popular in cold weather and at late-night soup restaurants. Diners often season it with garlic vinegar or lemon and have bread alongside. The broth has a deep savoury flavour and a substantial texture; it provides protein as well as fat. For a lighter bowl, ask for less of the oily topping and enjoy it without extra bread.
