[Sca-cooks] OT:new question

[alm4 at cornell.edu]

Merry Christmas Everyone,

The other day a bunch of us were sitting around making fun of the men in
our lives food habits.

We were talking about boiling water for spagetti and we were all
wondering why we were all taught to boil cold salted water instead of Hot
salted tap water.

I know why it's true for boiling meat for broth/soup, but why for spagetti?

Anybody know?  Were we dreaming about this?
