Some say that waiting for the hot water to run before you fill the pot, and then boiling it uses less energy and takes less time than boiling cold water on the stove “because you already paid for some of that heat”
I say whether that’s true or not, it’s less efficient cooking prep time because standing there for a minute while the hot water arrives is time I could have just filled the pot and put it on the stove and move onto other things while I wait for it to boil.
How do you do it?
