Basically you'll need to think of a way how to record these measurements in your database tabel.
For cooking instructions I can imagine that you have a limited set of measurements like "spoon", "kilo", etc.
Now add to the ingredients tabel (tblIngredients):
Ingedient
Quantity
Measurement

and use a tblMeasurements to hold the allowed values. When you use the lookup tab in the tblIngredients on the measurements field, you can make a combo for the field looking up the measurement from the tblMeasurements.

Clear ?
