    Step 1

    Shot. Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta: 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 Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta. Heat to a quiet simmer, about 195°F / 90°C and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot. Weigh whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla bean, gelatin powder, water. Panna cotta is milk, cream, sugar, and just enough gelatin to hold a spoon. The pod is scraped into the warm dairy so the specks stay visible. It is an indulgent dessert on purpose, and it needs a few hours in the fridge.

    Shot. Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta: checking the center for doneness. Natural window light, ivory linen, handmade ceramic, no text, no logo.

    Shot. Split screen is unnecessary. Show the finished, correct texture, then a hand points at the cue.
