I have 20 plus cook books, the following are my most used.
I will add another vote for Table for Two. Easy, Basic, and uncomplicated recipes. Love it and highly recommend it all the time. My second choice is the Bais Yaacov cookbook #1. It is a classic.
Miriam Pascal's cookbooks are all great.

Depends on the newlywed and if she likes to cook or not etc. I certainly was a very good cook before I got married and wouldn’t need a beginner cookbook

Another vote for Lubavitch Cook Book. I like the original yellow cover one the best.

Purple lubavich one ans the bais yaakov one. Those are my most used but I don't use cookbooks much honestly.

Right. She is not a newbie at cooking, thats why I mentioned practical and good recipes, and not specifically beginner types.

Thanks for all the recommendations.

She might find it hard to cook for two, especially if she's used to cooking for a large family. Reiterating my vote for Table for Two.

Table for two is great for seasoned cooks as well.
It’s not only for beginners, it’s great for cooking smaller amounts

I only opened this thread to make sure someone had listed the purple cookbook. It is a basic that every Frum home should have. Not only does it have a great assortment of basic (and not so basic) recipes, it has a measurement guide & substitution suggestions in the back.

(BTW a single guy I know who was living alone went into a jewish bookstore and asked for a cookbook recommendation so he would be able to cook for himself. The ladies recommended the purple cookbook & told him his wife-whenever he found one- would enjoy it, too. She does!)
