McDonald’s released the first video of its new web series, “What’s Cooking?” recently. The series is hosted by McDonald’s Executive Chef and Vice-President of culinary innovation Chef Dan Coudreaut, and will also feature members of his team. It’s meant to show customers where the company’s food comes from, and how it’s prepared at McDonald’s kitchens.

The first episode is entitled, “Cracking the Secret of the Egg McMuffin.” The video, which is just about a minute long, shows Chef Dan in Santa Barbara, California, the birthplace of the restaurant’s classic breakfast sandwich. He speaks to franchisee David Peterson whose father, Herb Peterson, invented the Egg McMuffin in 1972. Peterson says that his father loved Eggs Benedict, and he wanted to create a handheld version—thus, the Egg McMuffin was born.

Future episodes are expected to show McDonald’s chefs travel to California’s Salinas Valley to show where they get their produce. After that, they’ll go to Boise, Idaho to harvest potatoes. The series is available online on McDonald’s YouTube channel.
