This recipe ill-advisedly calls for very hot tap water.
In the United States, hot water drawn directly from the tap generally is not potable. From one city's department of health to another, one will learn that heat-friendly bacteria may grow in the boilers that heat the water, and these bacteria may make one ill, sometimes seriously ill.
Hence, municipal departments of health generally advise using cold tap water for drinking and eating which is then heated over the stove or in the oven to the desired temperature.
Please correct this recipe and the many others on this site that advise the use of substances that are known to make one ill and caution readers to avoid this danger.

Reminds me of some yummy arugula pizza that we had in Rome. Look forward to trying it.
