I'm a bit obsessed with watching cooking shows on YouTube. Here are a few of my favorites in no particular order.
Anti-chef: Guy is on a journey to learn how to cook. Blew up when he started working through Julia Child's cookbooks. He also has a series where he is trying to make something from every country in the world.
Barry Lewis - British guy who tries a lot of Tiktok foods, hacks, and has compares ingredients based on price
Beryl Shereshewsky - cooks foods from around the world based on a shared theme/ingredient
Pasta Grammer - Italian woman teaches her American husband about traditional Italian foods
Claire Saffitz - incredible baker
Chef John - he's an excellent teacher
Sorted food - their older videos had a lot of battles and educational content. My favorite series they do is recipe relays.
J Kenji Lopez alt - I actually can't watch his channel because the POV makes me motion sick. However, he's a fantastic chef and you should watch him if the camera angle doesn't bother you.
Glen and friends cooking - he tries a lot of recipes from old community cookbooks
Tasting History with Max Miller - tries ancient recipes and teaches you the history of that food
Pro home cooks - I don't watch this channel as much anymore, but it used to be 2 brothers who taught viewers basic cooking techniques to throw together basic meals. Now it's run by just one of the brothers and he sometimes makes more complicated items, but still has a lot of simple recipes.
NYT Cooking - specifically the Mystery Menu series with Sohla and Ham. Won't necessarily teach you to cook but is fun to watch them come up with ridiculous seeming menus.
Tasting history is an amazing channel.
