To boil is the cooking method where a liquid is heated up to a boiling point and bubbles start to form on the surface.

To boil is a cooking method where a liquid (usually water) is heated until many bubbles appear on the surface. A rapid boil is when the bubbles appear very quickly.

For water to reach its boiling point, it has to reach 100 °C or 211.9 °F.

Always be careful when boiling liquid, as the hot substance can splatter up against you. The steam from the boiling liquid can be hazardous as it can also burn you.
