It is simplest to put the two different values in two different records as you describe.

The only additional point I'll mention is the use of the TSEL field to copy timestamps.
This would ensure that both updates of raw and cooked values have exactly matching
timestamps, which makes the pairs easier to recognise.

record(ai, "RAW") {
    field(FLNK, "OVEN")
}

record(sub, "OVEN") {
    field(INPA, "RAW")
    # ...
    field(FLNK, "COOKED")
}

record(ai, "COOKED") {
    field(INP , "OVEN")
    field(TSEL, "RAW.TIME")
}
