So I moved out recently and discovered I pretty much only know how to prepare scrambled eggs and smoothies.
I’ve been trying to find cool cooking resources online, but most feel like are just either clickbait or advertising me a lot of garbage (that vibe reminds me of toxic fitness channels).
Any good resources you guys may know? It doesn’t necessarily have to be YouTube channels, extra points if it has beginner level recipes, easily findable ingredients or it’s funny to follow. Thanks! :)

It’s not nearly as popular as many of the others mentioned. He’s been doing this for a long time, and his recipes are all over the place. He has a couple different series of videos. For instance one is about making cocktails, and my favorite is the old cookbook show.
Glen has an insane collection of old cookbooks and is really knowledgeable about the history of cooking. He offers information you can’t find anywhere else.
He also often does “method” recipes. He likes to say this a ton, “it’s not a recipe, it’s a method.” What he means is that while you can follow his recipe directly, you can use different ingredients as long as you follow the method. He does a lot of “pantry cleaning recipes” like this and it’s all about just using what you have to make something which is an incredibly useful skill to learn and practice.
