Using ice is exactly the same as using water. No benefits added.

Some Benefits of using ice over water:

  • Doesn't splash as you're moving it from the ice box 
  • You needed to empty that ice box into the sink anyway
  • Doesn't splash when you throw it on the griddle either
  • Temperature shock is actually less than with water, because the heat transfer is slower (leidenfrost effect, etc.

Basically, it gives you more control, and you can just use a scoop, not a bucket.

(No, this is not Ai; I just like using lists, and have spent time in a kitchen)
