The food cooks quicker when the water is about to boil. This is because when the water is about to boil, it stays at a constant temperature i.e. 100 degrees celcius. All the heat is utilized as the latent heat of vaporisation and no heat is used in raising temperature and hence, the food cooks quicker.
