I'll admit its been many years since I was a novice at cooking but it seems like its going to be a big challenge monetizing something you can get for free from hundreds of thousands of sources with detailed video instructions. You might have a very narrow niche of 'nerdy enough for cooking app, not nerdy enough to search on youtube and doesn't want video instructions' which is a lot more limited than any beginner cook. From my experience once you find someone on youtube whose videos you like their video history is a huge library of recipes from them, so it isn't always difficult to look through youtube and find recipes - I have a double handful of channels I know and like and earning credibility isn't their challenge given their videos wide success.
