The book's only quantity is 4 eggs in the coating for a whole head, plus beaten egg for brushing. For half a head we use 2.
Method
7 soļi- Tie the head with string to hold its shape, and tie the halves of each foot together. Put them in a large pot, cover with cold water and add the salt. Bring slowly to the boil, skim well and simmer gently for 2½–3 hours, until tender.
- Meanwhile, halve the kidney, cut out the white core and soak it in cold water for 30 minutes. Simmer the liver and kidney in salted water until cooked through: about 10 minutes for the liver, 15 for the kidney. Cool.
- Lift out the head and feet and keep the broth for soup. Put them in a colander, pour cold water over them and pat them dry with a clean cloth. Remove the string.
- Grate the liver finely, or chop it in a food processor, and chop the kidney finely. Mix with the bread, 2 eggs, allspice, lemon zest and salt to a thick paste you can spread. Thin it with cream if it is too stiff, or add more bread if too soft.
- Heat the oven to 200 °C and butter a roasting tin. Lay the head, cut side down, and the feet in it. Brush them with beaten egg, spread the paste evenly all over, about 1 cm thick, and brush again with egg.
- Bake for 30–40 minutes, until the crust is golden and firm. Because it contains egg, it should reach 72 °C.
- Lift the head onto a warm dish, scatter the parsley leaves over it and lay the feet around.
Notes
What the book says vs. what we added
the book ties the cleaned head and the feet (split lengthwise) with string, boils them in salted water, rinses and dries them, coats them with a paste of grated boiled calf's liver, chopped boiled kidneys, bread crumb, 4 eggs, allspice and lemon peel, brushes them with egg before and after coating and bakes them. It thins the paste with cream or stiffens it with crumbs as needed. Using half a head, the salt in the paste, the amounts, oven temperature and times are ours.
Sourcing
order the head from a specialist butcher, scalded and cleaned, with the tonsils removed. A boned and rolled calf's head (tête de veau) also works: cut the cooked roll into thick slices, coat them and bake for about 20 minutes.
Eating it
the cheeks, the skin and the gelatinous parts are the prize; the crust adds a savoury liver flavour, like a pâté.
