I love, love, love cookbooks. For a basic introduction, I’d recommend:
The Joy of Cooking (prefer the older editions to the new one) and Mark Bitmann’s How to Cook Everything. Bittman writes for the dining/food section of the NY Times. Someone mentioned Cook’s Illustrated–those cookbooks, are good too. I got my daughter a subscription to the magazine when she got her first apartment.
