I see, if it is just export you can still use a link with custom exporters
for internal and external recipes. eg: [[irec: some recipe label]] might
export to \uline{some recipe label} and [[erec:some other recipe]] might
export to \uuline{some other recipe}, and you would use the ulem latex
package to get those commands.

The colors I was referring to were for your benefit in org-mode to make it
easy to see which kind of link it is.

Another alternative is a macro:

#+MACRO: irec  \uline{$1}
#+MACRO: erec  \uuline{$1}
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{ulem}
{{{irec(some label)}}} and {{{erec(some other label)}}}

This exports to: \uline{some label} and \uuline{some other label}
