[quote=Anonymous]I would get a good cutting board and a good, inexpensive chef's knife, e.g.,:

I have small hands so I prefer a smaller knife vs. the 8-10 inch.  I would have her practice knife skills--cutting an onion as PP mentioned, carrots, garlic.  Make flat and make many.  Reviewing basic food safety--how to prevent cross contamination, how to season etc.

A insta-read thermapen, and a fire extinguisher and show her how to use it.  This last thing is something that can be ordered directly and sent to her home.  Magnets as to proper temps for meat, cooking times are helpful so she doesn't feel she needs to consult a recipe every time.

I like this cook book:  http://www.amazon.com/Everyday-Food-Great-Fast/dp/0307354164/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1436293773&sr=1-1&keywords=every+day+food

especially it's one pan meals.  Who needs a lot of clean up no matter what your age.  It used to run as a series on PBS, but I'm not sure it's available any longer.[/quote]
