My mum learnt to cook from nanna's Edmond's cookbook, I think you might only be able to get it in New Zealand though? She had to get het sister to post a copy over. Everything is from scratch in there... I think even mayonnaise recipes, there are diagrams of chickens, lamb, beef etc and what cuts of meat come from where and how to best cook the meat.
Mum always taught me to cook from scratch, and I remember when DH and I got married and did our first grocery shop it was over $400 because I stocked up on so much pantry stuff - herbs and spices, all sorts of flours, sugars, tinned vegetables and what not.
