https://youtu.be/vMshCdGwK1g I really like this guys methods and Ideas on cooking. Nothing really fancy but he makes some “fancy” dishes with simple techniques. His dishes seem to focus on fresh ingredients.

Also, my favorite advice for cooking - Control everything, but especially control your heat.

Check out "you suck at cooking" (thats the name of the channel), while its recipes are very good and uses cheap easy to get ingredients and real, the procedures are ironic and made like a parody of cooking videos, its very entertaining but not as usefull if you whant to use the video as a step by step guide althought you can still use them as one, provided that you get the joke, but if you are willing to have some patience then you are not gonna be disapointed.

One really practical way to learn some new recipes is to use a recipe box service like HelloFresh or Gousto.

They deliver a box with all the required ingredients and easy to follow recipe cards.

For anything that you make & enjoy, you can keep the recipe card and cook it again using store bought ingredients.

These recipe boxes regularly have deals and promotions (e.g. 60% off, refer a friend, etc.) so it doesn't have to be too expensive.

Or if you don't want to order one at all, it's worth knowing that HelloFresh make all their recipes available online for free. So you can download and print off any that you like the sound of, without ever even ordering one of their boxes.

You'll learn some weird history, some things to do and LOTS of things NOT to do.

And you will laugh your goddamn ass off.

It has had it's rise and fall, but Bon Appétit has a ton of great videos, both for instructions and entertainment.

A few years ago, a lot of the chefs came together in some sort of union against the leadership with pretty ugly claims, resulting in most of the chefs leaving Bon Appétit. I'm not sure what the current situation is, maybe we're morally supposed to stay away from the channel?

Anyways, I love the old videos with Brad Leone, Molly Baz, Claire Saffiz and several others. The videos beyond the major resignation has a completely different feel to it, so I haven't been following the channel a lot since that.

I'm a sucker for Sauce Stache.

Amazing videos about vegan alternatives to meat; he tries everything and it's so delicious looking and he's got a great personality. He also goes deep with a variety of mushrooms which opened my eyes a bit. I've been wanting to get my hands on a lobster mushroom ever since I saw this one.

Also the chicken of the woods one is great.

And another random coming video I watched that changed my cooking was this one about knife skills for cutting food.

Tim's Kitchen Tips

The whole series is great.

I learned a lot from watching the original Japanese Iron Chef. You're not learning recipes of any sort. What I learned were techniques and that it's okay to experiment and be creative in the kitchen. For day to day meals, it works pretty well when trying to come up with meal ideas based on what's on sale at the grocery store. If I want to try making something specific, that's when I search for recipes.

I don't know if it's on YouTube but Amazon has one called Oh cook with James May from top gear. It's pretty entertaining.

this is a good video of you want to learn and hone good kitchen skills especially knife handling. Jacques Pepin really has some good videos.

Sorted Food is great, and they have an app with what they call recipe packs that help a oid food waste

Though I only speak a minuscule smatter of Italian - and none is necessary to enjoy these videos - I really like anything with Giorgione in it, for example:

Just dive down this wonderful rabbit hole.

Adam Ragusea

I don't necessarily use them for specific recipes but they are detailed and explain why they like doing things a certain way. I think that is the biggest thing when you are learning to cook and not just follow recipes.

I'd also put Ann Reardon/How to Cook That in a similar spot but more geared toward baking.

Jun's kitchen

Nats what I reckon

I found Headbanger’s Kitchen pretty accessible when I was researching keto-centric cooking. He also does a lot of Indian dishes and some vegetarian as well.

Horns up! 🤘

Jun's Kitchen A little less easy to follow but it's always a pleasure to watch him cook. You'll feel jealous of the quality of food he makes for his cats

Emmymade is awesome.

If you like authentic Korean food, I'd suggest Maangchi
