That cold water will boil faster than warm water.
It's a confusion. You should always cook with cold tap water, not hot, because hot tap water can contain excessive amounts of lead.
There are several instances where hot water can freeze faster than lukewarm water. I believe people saw this on shows such as Bill Nye and then forgot the specifics.
Wait what's this about hot water and lead? I love me some hot showers, is it making me dumb?
I dunno if it contains lead so much as it contains extra minerals from sitting in your waterheater.
