recipe book
Kitchen instruction manual
A recipe book is a book containing instructions for preparing food.
The term is interchangeable with cookbook, though recipe book may suggest a smaller or more personal collection—a handwritten family recipe book, for instance, rather than a professionally published volume.
She keeps her grandmother's recipe book in the kitchen.
