Scene 10 · doneness · 6s
How you know it is done

Voiceover. Sweet Tamagoyaki is done when the outside has color and the center is cooked through for the protein in the pan.
On screen. Doneness
Scene 11 · mistakes · 7s
If it goes wrong
Shot. Split screen is unnecessary. Show the finished, correct texture, then a hand points at the cue.
Voiceover. Sweet Tamagoyaki looks done on top and is still raw in the center. Trust the cue in the method, not the color alone. Give it a few more minutes and check the center. Sweet Tamagoyaki spread, sank, or turned out dry. Measure by weight next time, heat the oven fully, and stop when the doneness cue appears rather than when the timer ends.
On screen. Common fixes

Shot. The dish cools on a rack, then a container is closed. No refrigerator brand in frame.

Keep the shot list and on-screen facts tied to this recipe.
