Why did'NT the salt water boil faster tan the plain water?
Because salt raises the boiling point of water...which is why you cook things like eggs and pasta in salted water: because of this effect, the water gets hotter and the food gets done faster.
Does oil cook food faster than water?
Yes, it does.
Why do foods require longer microwave cooking time at higher atitudes?
The boiling point of water goes down at higher altitudes, and so foods take longer to cook (because the temperature of the food doesn't usually exceed the boiling point of water).See the Related Questions about how elevation effects the boiling point of water.
What keeps most nutrients in food-microwave or boil?
Microwave. Boiling food enables the nutrients to 'leech out' into the boiling water. Microwaving simply agitates the water molecules within the food.
Why is frying faster than boiling?
Because oil cooks up (Boils faster) faster because of the chemicals in it and the density it provides. water takes a free minutw because there is nothing in water water is just water but oil has different ingrediants which help boil it faster
Will food cook faster in salt water?
Water is a bad conductor of heat.salt has a slightly high boiling point
Is it the boiling of water or the higher temperature of water that cooks food faster in a pressure cooker?
On the food
Why did'NT the salt water boil faster tan the plain water?

Why is food cooked more rapidly by boiling it in a salt water than by boiling it in a pure water?
Food cooks faster in salt water because the salt in the water wraps the food which the chemical reactions from the surface of the food and the salt that contracts and it likes heat the food faster.
Why do you boil your water?
to heat it up to cook food, so the heating process isn't nearly as long... you see, without boiling the water before cooking the food, it would take much longer for the food to heat up and cook thoroughly if you boil water prior to cooking it the food, the water is much easier to absorb by the food and you can get the job done quicker, faster, and easier(:
Does oil cook food faster than water?
Yes, it does.
How does adding salt to water effect how it boils?
Raises the temperature at which the water boilsAdding salt does not make the water boil faster, but makes the water boil at a higher temperature than 100 degrees Celsius. This may allow you to cook food in that water faster than in plain boiling water.
Does it take longer to cook spagehtti at sea level or on a mountain?
The boiling temperature of water is dependent on the surrounding pressure. And air pressure decreases as you get higher up. As pressure decreases, so does the boiling point. This means that the water will start to boil faster on the mountain, but it will boil at a lower temperature. At a lower temperature, food takes longer to cook.
Food in a pressure cooker is cooked faster because of the?
The higher pressure raises the boiling point of water.
Why is specific heat different for water and oil?
Water wont get hotter than boiling otherwise it evaporates. Oil can reach higher temperatures which cooks food faster and makes food crispy, but you can still cook with oil at low temperatures also, like when making pomme fondant.
Why do vegetables cook better and faster in a pressure cooker?
Because the boiling point of water increases as the pressure increases, the pressure built up inside the cooker allows the liquid in the pot to rise to a higher temperature before boiling thus cooking the food faster than usual.
What is the definition of cottle?
'Cottle' is not a word in English. You may mean 'coddle' which means to cook food in water below boiling
