Anywhere people don't drink that much tea, use a Moka pot for coffee, and boil the milk.
- matthiasv 12y agoGermany is definitely not a tea country, yet everyone I know has an electric kettle.
- kalleboo 12y agoSame in Sweden. It's also faster than heating water on an electric stove, so it's useful when you're making something like rice or pasta as well.
- tripzilch 12y agoExactly, it's also more accurate, as you know the water will be consistently just below 100C as you pour it on the pasta. I set my timer to 7.5 minutes to get a perfect al dente, just slightly undercooked so it can still absorb some of the sauce you mix it with. And always remember, no oil in the pasta water!!
