[net.cooks] formatting recipes

This is a query for your favorite way of formatting recipes (when
typesetting).  My favorite is the style used in Joy of Cooking where
the ingredients are bold and inline with the instructions.  I have a
set of LaTeX macros that do it that way; if anybody would like them i
can mail them to you.  (Enter TeX salespitch mode: LaTeX is a nifty set
of macros for TeX.  TeX is typesetting software; it runs on unix and it
is public domain.  Personally, i think it is much better than troff.)
Another method i've seen that i like is to have the ingredients in the
outside margin, in italics, alongside the instructions.
