How to make the testina di capretto al forno: Clean and split the spring kids' heads. Remove any visible cartilage. Prepare a battuto with pancetta,
garlic, rosemary, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper. Spread this mixture over the heads, pressing lightly
so the mixture adheres tightly and covering the brain portion with aluminum foil so it does not burn
while cooking. Grease a baking pan and bake in the oven at 475ºF for 2 hours, basting occasionally
with white wine.
The testina di capretto al forno dish is considered a delicacy, especially in Calabria, Sicily and Sardinia.
