I still remember the early days in the Cucumbertown migration saga, when we were contacted by bloggers like Nandita and Mareena because their ingredients were showing things like “Salt- 14 teaspoons ” instead on 1/4 teaspoons. Yeah, not the best way to start the day, right? And god forbid, if someone wanted to write ‘2 cups + 2 tablespoons of flour’ it needed all sorts of bracketing for the recipe to appear right.

Of course we immediately corrected these things, but the truth is sometimes the ‘intelligent’ parsing of the ingredients may require a little bit of human intervention.

Here’s how you can do that.

Here’s another example where you may need to this:
