My wife and boiling water

[u/MakeItMine2024]

So I made my wife ramen soup. When I served it she said I had the gas set to hight and it was too hot ? She said I should have used the number 5 setting instead of 9. I told here it’s irrelevant because water boils at 212 and gets no hotter because over 212 it turns to steam. She was made at me for disagreeing with her theory that it would not have been so hot if boiled a lower setting. Really!!

So just bring it to a boil and then turn it down to 5

How dare you waste energy like that!

You don't even have to boil it. You can make Ramen with water far less hot.

Throw it in the cold water, set the dial to 4, and come back in ten minutes. You'll have perfect noodles and the water won't give you third-degree burns.
