If you are cooking pasta, rice, or any vegetable that grows above the ground-start cooking in hot water. This saves lots of money because you don't have to wait to heat the water, so it cooks quicker.
If you are cooking a vegetable that grows underground-sweet potatoes, carrots, onion, potatoes to name a few, start cooking in cold water.

You don't mean hot water from the tap do you? I have heard that is not a good idea. It can have sediment in it and a bad taste.
Lilac, I think she means to heat the water prior to adding the ingredients, not to use hot tap water.
