Shouldn't be a problem, but the approach depends on how you would like to
access the data later.

Will you be storing the methods/steps as well?

Will you need to link it (loosely) to something else - say procurement and
sales? Or it's just recipes.

Because it's quite different if you later want to find out:
We sold X number of various products.
Based on the recipes we should have used Y raw materials.
Compare this with what we're buying. etc etc.

vs.
I just want to look up recipes given some keywords.

Cheerio,

Link.
