Whyyyy would Vulcan kitchens run cooler than starships? Vulcan is a desert planet and Vulcans as a species are accustomed to high temps -- which is even obliquely referenced in the ep when Amanda says that a Vulcan wouldn't even notice the heat from holding a boiling hot teapot barehanded. I would assume Vulcan kitchens to be higher temperature than even Vulcan living quarters, which should be higher than human-standard room temp. I can't think of any legitimate reasons why a Vulcan kitchen would be cooler than Pike's quarters at all, let alone so much cooler that it makes a manifest difference in fermentation rates.
Perhaps being from such a hot planet, their cuisine consists of mainly chilled dishes.
