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.

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.
Not sure why someone down voted you but this is an excellent tip
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.
My wife and I love watching Chef Pierre
Came here to post chef jean pierrre. He's like a friendly wizard in the kitchen.
If you want to get into baking John Kirkwood videos are really good. https://www.youtube.com/@JohnKirkwoodProFoodHomemade
His Sandwich bread made easy at home is one of my favorits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWpSbYV96_c
I have also followed a few videos from Natashas Kitchen that have turned out well. https://www.youtube.com/@Natashaskitchen/videos
And on a more funny note multi-millionare twitch streamer Asmongold demonstrates how to cook a $2 stake https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hETgbsF5yY8

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.
The whole series is great.

https://youtu.be/vMshCdGwK1g I really like this guys methods and Ideas on cooking. Nothing really fancy but he makes some βfancyβ 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.

Jun's kitchen
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
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.

Neat, good bot.
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.
I found Headbangerβs Kitchen pretty accessible when I was researching keto-centric cooking. He also does a lot of Indian dishes and some vegetarian as well.

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.
Sorted Food is great, and they have an app with what they call recipe packs that help a oid food waste
Nats what I reckon
Emmymade is awesome.
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:

OR even better

Just dive down this wonderful rabbit hole.
