A novel method is proposed to estimate the equilibrium moisture content Xe at a specific temperature using the change over time in moisture content during cooking of spaghetti at different rates of temperature increase. In this method, the moisture content XvT→0 at infinitely slow heating is the equilibrium moisture content Xe at that temperature, based on the relationship between the average rate of temperature increase vT in reaching a certain temperature and the moisture content X. Xe estimated by the proposed method was almost consistent with the equilibrium moisture content estimated from the change in moisture content over time at a constant temperature, and the validity of the proposed method was verified.
