Fox News reported that Ina Garten's approach to scrambled eggs uses ricotta, which the outlet's headline describes as an unexpected Italian staple. The Fox News report on Ina Garten's ricotta scrambled eggs set Garten's method beside one from Gordon Ramsay that uses crème fraîche.

The headline presents the ricotta technique as Garten's secret to creamy scrambled eggs. According to the summary, Garten's ricotta eggs rival Ramsay's crème fraîche method, and Fox News described the result as having a "custardy texture."

The summary says the dish includes chives, Parmesan and red pepper flakes. It does not give quantities, cooking times or step-by-step instructions for either method, and it does not say which method Fox News considered better.

The summary identifies each method by its key ingredient, ricotta for Garten and crème fraîche for Ramsay. It also does not state when either recipe was first published or whether either cook has discussed the comparison elsewhere.

The account rests on a single source. No other outlet's report on the two methods was included in the material used for this story, so the details above reflect only what the Fox News summary states.

Because the story draws only on that summary, the description of the dish is limited to the ricotta base, the chives, the Parmesan and the red pepper flakes named there.
