Add the onion and cook for about an hour, with a low boil, until the meat is cooked well and easily separates from the bones. 15 minutes before readiness, salt the broth, add bay leaves and peppercorns. Remove the onion and spices from the finished broth. Remove the chicken from the broth, separate the meat from the bones and chop. Strain the broth through cheesecloth.
2. Soak gelatin in a glass of chilled broth and leave to swell for 1 hour.
Put the swollen gelatin on the stove and heat, stirring occasionally, over low heat until the gelatin is completely dissolved (do not bring to a boil).
3. Wash and dry eggs. From the blunt end of the egg, make a small hole with a knife and expand the hole to 1,5-2 cm. Pour the contents of the eggs (white and yolk) and use for cooking other dishes (they will not be needed in this recipe). Rinse empty eggshells well in a soap and soda solution and rinse thoroughly with running water.

5. Cut the ham into cubes. Drain the liquid from green peas or corn. Cut the bell pepper into cubes (it will be more beautiful if you take peppers of different colors).
6. At the bottom of an empty eggshell, put pieces of bell pepper and leaves of greenery.
Lay on top, alternating, ham, corn, pepper and leaves of greens – thus fill all the free space of the eggshell to the top. And pour the broth with the gelatin dissolved in it.
