When frozen vegetables are added to a pot of boiling water, heat energy will flow from the boiling water to the frozen vegetables. This occurs because heat transfers from areas of higher temperature (the boiling water) to areas of lower temperature (the frozen vegetables) until thermal equilibrium is reached. As a result, the frozen vegetables will gradually thaw and cook as they absorb heat from the water.
