A shorter drying time, together with acceptable product quality, is preferred in food processing. To accomplish this requirement, the present work was studied on the effect of temperature on drying kinetics and quality of cooked rice. The long grain-jasmine rice was chosen as a raw material. The experiments were carried out at temperatures of 50, 60, 80, 100 and 120 degrees C. Effective diffusion coefficient was determined experimentally using a method of slopes. An empirical equation was developed to describe the effective diffusion coefficient as a function of temperature and moisture content. The developed equation was utilized to predict moisture content as the drying progressed and the prediction agreed with the experimental result relatively well. For the quality, the drying temperature affected the color of cooked rice, but it insignificantly affected shrinkage and rehydration capability of dried cooked rice. As examined by scanning electron microscope, morphologies of cooked rice dried at temperatures were similar, but they were relatively different to that of freshly cooked rice, with slightly more porous material after processing.
