I just tried to boil some water using the tips found on the post....guess what??? I burnt my water! I knew I couldnt cook!

You must have skipped a step, I've never burnt my water when heating it.

I use a heat source and stand there and wait.

Are we really talking about how to boil water?

So wait, do I turn on the stove before pouring the water or after? Can I set the pan of water on the stove before lighting? #soconfused

I never tried the microwave method. I always use a stainless steel pan with a heavy bottom
