Bone the capon, leaving drumsticks and wing bones in. Season with  salt

pan, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil until  smoking. Over medium heat, add
onion, garlic, and ginger and cook  until softened and golden brown,
about 4 to 5 minutes. Add veal,  sausage, apricots and almonds and cook
until meat is cooked through,  about 10 to 12 minutes. Place in bowl
and allow to cool.  Trim and quarter artichokes. SautÃ© 6 minutes in
remaining olive oil  with sesame seeds.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Drain juices from the veal mixture and add artichokes, bread crumbs,
sherry, oregano and eggs. Place stuffing into chest, wing and thigh
cavities. Roll up, assemble to resemble a chicken, and tie together.
Place on a roasting rack in a roasting pan and bake 1 hour and 20
minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 155 degrees. Remove  and
allow to rest 15 minutes. Carve into 1-inch thick slices and  serve.
