Step 1
Shot. Green bean soup: weighed ingredients beside the heating pan. Natural window light, ivory linen, handmade ceramic, no text, no logo. Show the action, then a jump cut through the wait. Do not film the full Heat 5 min in real time.
Voiceover. Set out a scale and the equipment for Green bean soup. Heat to a quiet simmer, about 195°F / 90°C and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot. Weigh green beans, potato, cooked bacon, yellow onion, kosher salt, low-sodium chicken broth, scallion. Green bean soup is cooked in Luxembourg as its own dish. Simmer beans and potato with bacon until the potato starts to thicken the soup. Amounts are scaled for four from foods this library can count, so the nutrition panel comes from those ingredients.

Shot. Green bean soup: checking the center for doneness. Natural window light, ivory linen, handmade ceramic, no text, no logo.

Slate words for the editor: iris, thistle, fork, ramekin, gloss, velvety, jute, vapor, jasper, umber.

Scene 12 · mistakes · 7s
If it goes wrong
Shot. Split screen is unnecessary. Show the finished, correct texture, then a hand points at the cue.
Voiceover. Green bean soup looks done at the edge and is still raw in the center. Trust the cue, not the color. Check the thickest piece and give it a few more minutes. Green bean soup turned out salty, dry, or watery. Weigh the salt and the liquid next time. Keep the heat at the temperature in the method, and stop when the doneness cue appears.

Machine-readable script for a later video tool. Scene durations are edit lengths, not cooking times. Long simmers and bakes are jump cuts. Order: hook, title, mise, equipment, one scene per numbered step (shot, on-screen text, voiceover, duration), doneness, fixes, storage, nutrition, plate, and the closing CTA. Keep the shot list and on-screen facts tied to this recipe.
