IM WEIRDLY CONFUSED ABOUT COOKING.

Hi I’m 24, I just moved on my own. I’m desperately ready to eat different foods. I wouldn’t say I’m perfect at cooking. I know how to make basic dishes like spaghetti, or breakfast. The thing I’m confused about is how people actually learn to create restaurants style meals. (1)Do you buy a cook book, look at random videos and tiktoks all over the place? (2) How do people learn what to do with seasonings and how to mix them and which to use together, I don’t even know what to buy and start with?
