In the kitchen, users have found the Amazon Echo Show smart display to be really helpful. I mean, is there any better way to learn how to cook than by watching videos of a virtual assistant guiding you through the process? Simply ask Alexa to “show me how to boil an egg” or “Alexa, show me the recipe for tacos” if you need assistance. Additionally, YouTube is a tremendously helpful resource for learning cooking techniques if, like me, you learn best by watching.

After that, you are free to search for any YouTube video you want to view. In order to receive video recommendations according to your preferences, you can also sign into your YouTube account.
