Could it be an abbreviation for “ditto”? For example, if ingredients were listed as
1 tsp. salt
2 do. cream of tartar
3 do. cinnamon
… then perhaps this was indicating “2 tsps. cream of tartar” and “3 tsps. cinnamon”?
“Ditto” is sometimes abbreviated as “do.” — so perhaps it is a possibility if the first ingredient listed in your sources always is a defined measurement type (such as teaspoons). Hope this helps!
