This is because the water is hotter in New Orleans than in Denver.
ans2. The Q should have concerned the cookingtime, not the boiling time. Because of the higher altitude, the water will boil sooner at Denver than at New Orleans, but at a lower temperature.
Adding salt to water when you boil foods is for the purpose of flavor only. I don't add salt to water when boiling foods. That began because of a low sodium diet but now if salt is added to the water the food tastes too salty to me. If you add salt or how much salt you add is a personal choice for your taste preference.
It takes longer to boil because there is more of it that therefor takes longer to heat up. This is because a larger volume of liquid is needed to be heated to the same temperature as a small volume of liquid.
Yes. The more quantity of water there is the more time it takes to boil than a less quantity of water. No I don't think so because it depends on the temperature on which it is the boiled.If it is more,then the water boils fast. Of course if it is more water,then it needs more temperature than less quantity of water.
The force of gravity makes it harder to boil water on a stove as the weight of the water adds pressure, requiring more energy to reach the boiling point.
Adding salt to water increases the boiling temperature, causing the water to come to a boil more slowly. This increase in the cooking temperature will, in theory, cause foods boiled in salt water to cook faster. Pure solutions will generally have lower boiling points than mixtures. Adding sugar to the water will have a similar effect but would not be nearly as nice to cook food in! Note that if pure water is heated up to a high temperature prior to the addition of the salt, the addition could cause the entire pot to start boiling suddenly. This is a result of the grains of salt acting as nucleation sites. This has the effect of making nearly-boiling water actually boil more quickly when salt is added. The tiny amount of salt required to cause a nucleation effect would have no effect on the temperature of the boiling water. In this regard, you can think of the salt as a catalyst, facilitating the change of state of the water from liquid to boiling. We said "in theory" above because adding salt to water to raise the boiling point for cooking doesn't actually work in practice. The amount of salt you'd typically add to water for cooking would have negligible effect on the boiling temperature. Let's look at some numbers. Assuming fresh water at sea level, you'd need to add 230 grams of table salt to raise the boiling point of one liter of water just 2 degrees C. To raise the boiling point of the two quarts of water you're cooking pasta your pasta in by that same two degrees, you'd have to stir in 435 grams of salt. That's well over half of an entire 737 gram blue Morton salt container! The pasta may cook faster in the hotter water, but people would probably not be coming back for second helpings of your ultra-salty linguini. Salt added to the cooking water also "hardens" the surface of the starches in pasta, reducing their stickiness. This prevents the pasta from sticking together in clumps. Somewhat counter-intuitively, oil added to boiling water does not reduce the stickiness of the pasta. It does reduce the surface tension of the water, increased by the starches in the pasta. This tends to reduce foaming. The bottom line is this: You can add a few grains of salt to pure water to kick off the boiling process with nucleation. Beyond that, add salt to water to flavor what you're cooking and to keep the pasta from sticking together. It will not have any measurable effect on cooking temperature or time.
You would weigh slightly less in Denver than in New Orleans due to the higher elevation in Denver. This is because gravity is slightly weaker at higher elevations, so you would experience a very slight reduction in weight in Denver compared to New Orleans.
The boiling point of any substance, including water, is dependent on two things, the temperature and the pressure. Water will boil if the temperature is high enough, or if the pressure is low enough. Colorado is at a higher altitude than Louisiana, so there is less air pressure in Colorado. The lower pressure in Colorado means that not as high of a temperature is required to bring water to a boil than in Louisiana. (New Orleans is in Louisiana, so they can be treated as the same place in this case). The result is that boiling point of water in Louisiana is about 212 degrees Fahrenheit, while it is about 202 degrees Fahrenheit in Colorado. Notice that the water in Colorado is boiling at a lower temperature. More time is require to cook it because the water that it is being cooked in is not as hot as the boiling water in Louisiana.
Yes, pasta will cook faster in boiling water compared to cold water. Starting the cooking process with boiling water allows the pasta to cook more evenly and quickly, resulting in better texture and flavor.
Water boils at different temperatures depending on the altitude. At higher elevations water will boil at a lower temperature. Since water will not get hotter than it's boiling point it will take longer to cook pasta at higher altitudes.
Barilla's website tells people to boil their angal hair pasta for 8 mins for al dente, 1 more minute for softer pasta. God bless. Mike
Yes. You can make a pasta and vegetable stir fry. Just chop up some veges, saute them, boil some pasta, throw them together with some sauces and Voila! there you go! More information: There are many excellent meatless pasta dishes, usually incorporating cheese or other dairy product for protein. Macaroni-and-cheese is just one example.
There are basically two reasons for boiling (simmering) homemade pasta sauce for an hour. The longer the sauce cooks, the thicker it will be. Also, simmering for longer periods of time will allow the flavors to "marry," creating a better tasting sauce. Many recipes specify simmering pasta sauces for even longer; two hours or more.
Pasta does.
It depends on the size and type of pasta. Orzo and angel hair need about 6 minutes or a little more. Thicker pastas need 10 - 12 minutes, or longer. Take out a piece to taste it and test the doneness.
A spiral pasta is more commonly known as rotini pasta. The pasta is twisted or screw shaped and ideal for hearty meats and sauces.
Please look at the mint mark more closely. It's probably an O for New Orleans. The Denver Mint didn't open until 1906.
