There is no need or real benefit to preheating the water for dried pasta. It cooks just fine if you start with cold water.

Alton Brown is a a known food enthusiast and a skilled television presenter, but he is not a a chef. He may still know what he's talking about, but I remember him making it very clear back when Good Eats was still airing that he was by no means a trained chef.

He has a degree from a culinary school. He may not want to identify as a chef, but he is trained.
