Step 1
Shot. Wonton noodle 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 Wonton noodle soup. Heat to a quiet simmer, about 195°F / 90°C and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot. Weigh wonton wrapper, shrimp, peeled, pork tenderloin, dry spaghetti, low-sodium fish broth, scallion, toasted sesame oil, white pepper, fresh ginger, kosher salt. Wonton noodle soup is cooked in Noodle shop as its own plate, not as a copy of a restaurant menu. Wrap a shrimp and pork filling, poach the wontons in a clear broth, and add wheat noodles for only a minute so they stay springy. Amounts are for 4 from foods this library can count.
