Why You Should Never Cook With Hot Tap Water
Original: You Should Never Use Hot Tap Water for Cooking—Here’s Why
Health outlets are warning home cooks not to use hot tap water for cooking or food prep. The concern is that hot water dissolves accumulated metals such as lead from pipes and water heaters more readily than cold water, meaning contaminants can end up in soups, pasta and drinks. The advice is to start with cold tap water and heat it on the stove instead.
Why now: Renewed consumer interest in food safety and household water quality tips is driving attention to this warning.
