Jellied Eggs
Description
An amazingly beautiful appetizer. To make it, prepare egg shells by soaking them in warm baking soda solution, then rinsing and drying them. Layer a portion of the ham, pepper, and canned corn filling into each shell. Pour in a mixture of gelatin and meat broth. Refrigerate the eggs for several hours until the broth is fully set. Then peel them like regular hard-boiled eggs and serve.

Step 1
We won't need the eggs themselves for this recipe — only the shells. So you can prepare them in advance as you cook other dishes. It's important to wash the eggs thoroughly before use. Make a hole on the blunt end of the egg and pour out the contents.

Step 2
Pour a little warm water into a bowl, add a couple of teaspoons of baking soda, and soak the shells for a few minutes. Then rinse under running water and dry.

Step 3
Cut the ham and pepper into small cubes so the pieces fit through the hole in the shell. Prepare the corn and herbs.

Step 4
Place the ingredients into the shells. Soak the gelatin for 10 minutes, then heat without bringing to a boil until the gelatin dissolves. Mix it with the broth and pour into the shells. Refrigerate the eggs for several hours until the broth is fully set. Then peel as you would regular hard-boiled eggs and serve.
