I think it is partly salt and mineral residue from hard water.

depending on your system it could be one or a multitude of residual chemicals none that are harmful to you or it's usability.
but they do leave a deposit. some up in the northern part of the country have iron stains (reddish), those in california have hard stains (white), midwest ash looking, etc....
when you are through boiling an item, re- boil the pot with about .25 cup of vinegar too .75 cup of h2o
, should Cleon the pot nicely.

It could be calcium or lime or salt (if there is a water softener in the house).
You can clean the pot with vinegar to remove the deposits.
I hope I've helped you.

It's most likely a residue from the mineral deposits in your water supply.
