Le mie ricette by Testi Manifesti
Le mie ricette (“My recipes”) – written and illustrated by Testi Manifesti and published by Gigaciao – is a wild ride through Italian pop culture, cinema, design and food where every recipe is a visual manifesto and every page is a celebration of daily cooking, irony, and improvisation.
From the Bavarian meatballs of fantozzi contro tutti (“Fantozzi against everyone”) to the sandwich of chiedimi se sono felice (“Ask me if I’m happy”), and the pastasciutta antifascista (“Anti-fascist pasta”), this book serves up 34 unforgettable dishes reimagined through the lens of nostalgia, politics, and wit.
And while the recipes feed your memory, the typography feeds your eyes: designed using our Altro Serif typeface alongside a generous handful of other typefaces, each page balances bold graphics, playful layouts and strong visual storytelling.
Le mie ricette is not just a cookbook, it’s a collector’s item, a graphic experiment, and a love letter to everyday food, culture and design.
