Basically the same as 'pakuluan'. Think of it as the 'object-focus' version. While you 'pakuluan' the water in the pot (location focus), you 'pakuluin' the water itself (object focus). In real life? People use them interchangeably. Don't overthink it, just make sure the water is boiling for your pancit canton.
ROOT MEANING: boil; boiling point
