What water should you put potatoes in when boiling - cold or hot? The correct answer will surprise many
At first glance, there is nothing complicated about preparing boiled potatoes.
You need to peel and cut the tubers, throw the resulting pieces into a pan of cold water on the stove, and turn on the burner.
After about half an hour the dish will be ready.
Many housewives always follow this plan, without even realizing the gross mistake made at the very beginning of the process.

The vegetable should be in the pan after the liquid begins to boil.

Why put potatoes in boiling water
