'Parts' is used to do a recipe for food or drink that is universal in application.

in any mixture you undertake, a part of 'this' is the same size as a part of 'that'.

So if you had a recipe that had:

one part eye of newt

two parts bats wings

six parts tears of a sad blind man

Then the volume of 'eye of newt' would be one sixth the size of 'tears of a sad bind man'.

In the US, it is mostly a measure used in mixed alcoholic drinks.
