Feature request (not even sure this is possible) but if in the instructions you could add the measurements instead of what every recipe on the planet does and just say their name.

Example: "Put eggs, flour, sugar and butter in the bowl"

And it should be: "Put 2 eggs, 1 cup of flour, 1/2 cup sugar and 1 stick of butter in the bowl"

That where recipes goes wrong, how much is a cup or a 1/2 cup? How much is a stick of butter? Why not 250gr of flower, 125 gr of sugar, 100gr of butter.
