Should you salt the water before cooking fresh vegetables?
Vegetables can be cooked without added salt. But salt causes water to boil at a higher temperature than unsalted water, shortening the cooking time. Salted water also improves the flavor of most vegetables. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heavily salted water boils at about 213F (100.5C). The main reasons for adding salt is to keep starchy foods from sticking, prevent nutrient loss by "sealing" the surface of the food or to enhance the flavor of foods. See link below.
