Boiling preserves food by killing harmful bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that can cause spoilage or illness. The high temperature of boiling water destroys these pathogens and enzymes that could cause the food to deteriorate. Additionally, boiling can remove excess moisture from food, preventing the growth of bacteria and the subsequent spoilage.
