Step 1
Shot. Flaeskesteg: 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 Flaeskesteg. Heat to 375°F / 191°C and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot. Weigh pork tenderloin, potato, red cabbage, apple cider vinegar, ground cinnamon, bay leaf, kosher salt, olive oil. Flaeskesteg is cooked in Christmas as its own plate, not as a copy of a restaurant menu. Roast pork and serve it with potatoes and red cabbage sharpened with vinegar. Tenderloin stands in for a crackling roast. Amounts are for 4 from foods this library can count.

Step 5
Shot. Flaeskesteg: checking the center for doneness. Natural window light, ivory linen, handmade ceramic, no text, no logo.
Voiceover. Check the center of Flaeskesteg, not the edge. If the cue is not true yet, give it a few more minutes and look again. Opening a lid or an oven door early drops the heat.

Voiceover. Rest Flaeskesteg for 5 minutes, then taste and adjust the salt. Serve it in the way it is eaten in denmark, with the sauce or garnish that belongs to it. Film Flaeskesteg in this shot order and no other: a colander and a cloud of steam; fish just turning opaque and flaking; the lid lifted for one quick look; the oven dial and a hot rack. Slate words for the editor: grove, zephyr, skillet, shimmer, nacre, iris, basket, whisk, tender, quiet.

How you know it is done

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. Flaeskesteg 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. Flaeskesteg 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.
