I'm learning how to cook meals for my family, we have 2 very young kids and I like to start feeding them home made meals.
My problem is with boiling water.What is the best method that you can teach me.
>>
Start with ice cubes. Everyone knows that cold water boils faster, and ice will boil the fastest.

You should have 100-200 ice cubes in your freezer at all times. Take about 30 of those, put them in a pan (not a skillet!) and hold it over your kitchen garbage bin. Set whatever's in the bin alight, then hold the pan over the fire.

Do this 10 or 12 times and you'll have boiling water just like Martha Stewart boils it!

There are a million different ways to boil water depending on the type of meal you're making. Not to mention the metaphysical properties of boiling separate foods at once, such as noodles and meat. I recommend reading some books on the laws of thermodynamics, as well as The God Delusion.

Also, read the notes written by the Zodiac Killer. He offers a lot of insight into boiling water on an electric stove.

>>8365135
Don't listen to this idiot, because ice doesn't boil.
You need water, in a pot, and place it on a stove top.
Now, the important part is making sure you picked the right stove top location, if you find an area is hot, but the pot isn't there, you missed.
Now, once you got the pot on the hot you let the water get hot, this is crucial.
Once the water gets really hot it will start to form bubbles, these bubbles mean the water is drowning.
You must then scream at the water in the pot, demanding what it knows about the underwater kingdom, this will cause it to steam a little.
Keep at it until the bubbles get really big and you have done it!

You know the saying "a watched pot never boils"? This is the secret to boiling water: never, ever watch it. Simply put the pot on the stove, turn on the heat full blast, and leave for a couple of hours. When you get back, the pot will be nicely boiling, and now your instinct will be to look at it. BUT DON'T. In order to properly boil whatever food you're cooking, you mustn't look at the pot. With your back turned to the stove, carefully throw the pasta (or potatoes, or what have you) into the pot. This can take some practice. With your eyes averted, put the lid on the pot and leave it for another two hours. When you come back, blindfold yourself, pick up the pot, and strain it into the sink. Then, and only then, can you look at what you've cooked.

Congratulations! You're now a chef!

Always put in the salt only after the water is boiling so it dissolves quickly. If you heat water with the salt grains at the bottom of your pot it may damage the metal over time from cavitation effects.

Can I add boiling water to water to make it boil faster?
>>
>>8371612
No, that's how you control the speed but it works opposite
>>
>>8371614
what about adding more oxygen to water to make it boil faster, will that help
>>
>>8371621
That actually adds too much oxygen to the water and the added heat caused will make you burn your water.
>>
>>8371828
What are the symptoms of burned water. Will it leave any marks on the pot like when you burn the food in it.
>>
>>8371841
Well, part of water is Hydrogen, and that is very flammable.
Adding more Oxygen will cause the Hydrogen chemicals to break away and enter the steam cloud.
This, combined with the Oxygen will cause an explosion.
You won't have a pan, or a kitchen.

Fuck you plebs. I sous vide my boiled water. To a precise temperature of a 100 deg celcius.

How else are you going to get perfect evenly boiled water without burning the water touching the bottom of the pot. Its been tested over and over again. It is impossible with traditional methods, to get the water on the top of the pot to boil before the water below burns. Trust me, i used to work at The Fat Duck with Heston.
>>
>>8371867
Huh?
>>
>>8371459
It's bullshit, salt changes almost nothing in its solubility all the way from freezing to boiling temperatures. Look it up.

>>8372165
>It is impossible with traditional methods, to get the water on the top of the pot to boil before the water below burns.
You are full of shit for trashing traditional methods of boiling water, it was done that way for centuries for millennia you just have to stir the water to prevent from burning and sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Best if you can use wooden spoon to stir it so you don't transfer the heat with metal spoon away from the boiling water.
Check ancient cook manuscripts papyrus or clay tablets and it's all described there you modern kitchen butchers.
>>
>>8372968
Also, if you place the spoon on the top of the pot the latent magic from the tree that made the wooden spoon will prevent the water from boiling over.
>>
>>8373097
you just making fun of me,don't you
or you are serious?
>>
>>8373629
Serious.
Trees are made of wood and drink water.
The wood in your spoon will absorb the extra water so you don't get boil over.
>>
>>8373637
OK I will try this technique next time I boil pot of water.
Thank you kindly for your help.
