Out of curiosity

If I cut a gajar into pieces, would it take less heat/energy to boil it tender verses if I try to boil it tender as one big chunk?

Re: Out of curiosity

Less, but banana kya hai gajar ka?

PS: I know you wont be able to answer my question.

Re: Out of curiosity

i think it would take less if you cut it in pieces, because the surface of the gajar through which the heat will go inside it, will increase when cutting it.

a thought experiment:
Ad absurdum, if you would make gajar pudding, it would take least time to boil it compared to one large chunk

Of course small bits will take a shorter time...basic science a whole carrot will take you ages to boil...the smaller the pieces the quicker. Also try grating carrot for gajjar halwa
