Steps:
- In a large pot over medium heat, combine chicken, water, onions, celery, salt, nutmeg and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 2 hours, adding water as needed, until chicken is very tender. Remove the chicken from the soup. Refrigerate chicken and soup.
- When fat solidifies on surface of soup, remove from refrigerator and remove fat. Remaining soup should equal about 2 1/2 quarts.
- Remove corn from cobs by splitting kernels lengthwise with a sharp knife and scraping corn from cob. Combine soup and corn in a large pot over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until corn is tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place two of the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel and chop. Set aside.
- Chop cooled chicken meat and add to soup.
- In a medium bowl, beat remaining egg until light in color. Beat in flour and milk until smooth. Drop batter by partial spoonfuls into hot broth to make small (1/4 -1/2 inch round) dumplings. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 to 5 minutes, until dumplings hold their shape and float to the surface. Stir in reserved cooked egg.

PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH CHICKEN CORN SOUP
I am not sure where this recipe orginally came from but I received it from the real cook in the house! I added more corn and if you would like more or less chicken-depending on taste. Even I, NOT a cook, made this and it turned out GREAT!

PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH CHICKEN CORN SOUP WITH RIVELS
****PLEASE USE CHICKEN WITH BONE IN. If you are a corn lover, you will love this. This is my moms recipe for this popular PA dish. Rivels are like tiny little dumplings and add so much goodness to the soup. Prep and cook times are approximate, since she never really had a recipe written out. This tastes even better the next day.

Steps:
- Boil chicken with onion, salt and pepper in 3 quarts of water until tender.
- While chicken is boiling, chop eggs so they are ready.
- (I boil my eggs the night before).
- Remove chicken from bones, shred or cut into pieces.
- Add corn to broth and cook to doneness.
- Meanwhile make the rivels: Mix one raw egg and 1 cup of flour with fork and use your fingers to make crumbs.
- Add this slowly to boiling corn and broth and boil for 15 minutes more.
- Add chicken and parsley.
- The hard cooked eggs are added now, if desired.
- ***Ifyou are going to freeze any of the soup, do not add the hard cooked eggs to that portion.
- They do not freeze well at all and will ruin the soup.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pot when adding the chicken and vegetables. This will help ensure that everything cooks evenly.
- Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for at least 1 hour. This will allow the flavors to develop and deepen.
- Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh parsley or chopped chives.
Conclusion:
