Thus at high altitudes where the atmospheric pressure is less than 760 Torrs, water boils at temperatures below its normal boiling point of 100 o C. Food cooked in boiling water cooks more slowly at high altitude because the temperature of boiling water there is lower than it would be nearer sea level.
