Why are there white spots in new stainless steel 2 quart sauce pan? I just boiled water for pasta?
It's a brand new pan - Fabreware or Faberware I think. Stainless Steel - not copper, glass, iron or whatever other materials they use. I boiled water on an electric stove for pasta. When I was done there were white spots on the inside-bottom of the pan, mostly in a circle near the outer wall of the pan.
Did I break it boiling water?

My educated guess: There are several minerals (probably sodium) in your water whether it's from the tap or delivered by Arrowhead. After heating, the molecules can combine and fall to the bottom. Vinegar soak at the bottom of the pan can help get it scrubbed out.
If you add salt to your water (which most people do as this is the way to get salt into rice and pasta), wait for the water to boil first, then add it.
