Mountains take longer to cook food primarily due to lower atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes. This reduced pressure lowers the boiling point of water, meaning it boils at temperatures below 100°C (212°F). Consequently, foods, especially those that rely on boiling or simmering, take longer to cook through thoroughly. Additionally, the cooler temperatures at higher elevations can affect cooking times, requiring adjustments for effective heat transfer and cooking efficiency.

Why do you need to cook some foods longer in the mountains?
Because water boils lower than 100°C on a mountain, can you cook the food the water has already started to evaporate leaving food partially cooked or raw.

Why does pasta take longer in the mountains?
Pasta takes longer to cook in the mountains primarily due to lower atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes, which decreases the boiling point of water. As a result, water boils at a temperature lower than the standard 100°C (212°F), leading to longer cooking times for pasta. Additionally, the reduced oxygen levels can affect the cooking process, further extending the time needed to achieve the desired texture.

Why does spaghetti take 9 minutes to cook at sea level but 14 minutes to cook in the mountains?
At high altitudes, air pressure is lower. That means that the boiling point of water is lower as well (lower air pressure means that water molecules need less energy to turn into gas), and because the water is boiling at a lower temperature it takes longer for it to cook the pasta.
