Can anyone give me ONLY ONE best website link with recipes and learning how to cook for an absolute beginner?

7

I’ll be getting a free electric stove from a friend and want to start learning how to cook, beginning with the bare basics such as hard-boiled eggs, mashed potatoes, and so on. I want to save my money and learn from the internet instead of from books. Also, please give me tips about the use and/or cleaning of electric stoves and ovens. Thanks so much!

Bless your heart, It’s refreshing to read the honesty in your words. My very first cookbook was "Better Homes and Gardens" and I’m sure they now have a website full of beginner, all around basic recipes. You could also browse used book stores and consignment shops and get many cookbooks for reasonable prices. That way you could have the book on the counter as a reference while making the dish. Most older stoves require oven cleaner and S.O.S pads to clean well. Use gloves and follow the directions on the can.

    I would recommend getting a book. It’s not that much money. You need a nice Betty Crocker Cookbook. Recipes on the internet are very unreliable.

    americastestkitchen.com…has step-by-step instructions and illustrations for every recipe, videos and there’s a public television show of theirs that I watch weekly, it’s great and you really learn a lot of great tips and tricks.

    as for tips, if you’re cooking fish or garlic and don’t want the smell to get overwhelming through the house, leave a small bowl of white vinegar on your stove (not on the actual burners, though!) and it should help.
