Description

  The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a blade noodle that cuts noodle dough with a sword to obtain a noodle string, and to a blade noodle obtained therefrom.

  Speaking of sword-cut noodles originated in China, craftsmanship is known that crafts the noodles with a metal spatula bent in a square shape, throwing them into a kettle while boiling them, and in recent years like a craftsman in China. There is no shortage of topics, such as the invention of a robot that cuts the surface.

  The cross-section of the noodle strings of sword-cut noodles made in this way is triangular or crescent shaped, and the texture that combines the thick texture of the center with the smoothness of the thin part is well received in Japan. In recent years, interest has spread.

  Patent Document 1 is a mass production technology for sword-cut noodles. In Patent Document 1, the means for forming the cross-section of the noodle strip into a crescent-shaped noodle strip is the noodle strip edge that abuts against the end of the noodle strip that is conveyed by a conveyor, and a cutter having a semicircular blade portion. Because it moves in the direction, the crescent-shaped cross section of the noodle strings cannot be obtained without a cutter having a semicircular blade.

JP2007-189955

  In order to obtain a firmness and smoothness in the texture of sword-cut noodles, it is necessary to make a dough with a lot of water, similar to hand-made udon. On the other hand, in order to maintain a certain length as a noodle string and boil it up, it is necessary to cut it into a substantially uniform width and thickness.

However, the polyhydrated dough is soft and difficult to fix, and it is sticky, so it easily adheres to the blade.
Thus, in order to cut out noodle strings having a uniform width and thickness from a soft and sticky dough, not only the blade has a blade, but also it is required to quickly cut it at an appropriate angle.

  These so-called craftsmanship techniques reduce the drag force when scraping the fabric, and if the drag force when scraping increases beyond the line, the surrounding fabric to be shaved deforms and cannot be cut straight. Further, if a large number of noodle strings are cut simultaneously, the drag is increased to cause the same problem, resulting in a problem that it is difficult to mass-produce.

  The present invention solves such a problem, and the cross-sectional shape of the noodle strings is substantially crescent shaped, and the sword-cut noodles with excellent texture are not reproduced by craftsmanship. It aims at providing the method which enables mass production by cutting out simultaneously, and the sword-cut noodle excellent in the quality obtained by them.

  In order to achieve the above object, the inventor searched variously with a knife that was easily re-sharpened, and found that a sword-cut noodle with a similar appearance and texture to that obtained by craftsmanship was obtained. Completed the invention.

  That is, the present invention for shaving noodle strings in a method for producing a sword-cut noodle in which wheat flour is used as a main raw material and kneaded water is added and kneaded to prepare a noodle dough, and the cross-section is cut into a roughly crescent-shaped noodle string. In the means 1 for solving the problem, the dough is pushed into a plurality of strip dies that are opened in the template, and a part of the dough is passed through the back of the template. (2) A sword sliding step is included.

  The template and the thickness of the template of the present invention can be freely set. When pushing a large part of the fabric regardless of the mold, it is better to thin the template and reinforce it on the back side of the mold, and when pushing a fabric that matches the mold, the thickness of the template is Also good.

  The mold of the present invention is a hole formed in a vertically long strip shape in the template, and it is not necessary that the shape of the front surface and the back surface for pushing the dough are the same, and the shape of the noodle string is determined by the shape of the back surface Depending on the size, the shape of the front surface may be larger than the shape of the back surface.

  The shape of the strip shape opened in the template is not limited to a rectangle, but includes other polygonal shapes and oval shapes. If the width of the strip is 5 to 20 mm, preferably 8 to 17 mm, the shape of the end is not shown. The semicircle, triangle, or trapezoid shown in A of 2 may be used. Further, if the length of the strip is 10 to 30 cm, preferably 15 to 25 cm, it is suitable for sword-cut noodles, and the cut noodle strings may be easy to handle.

  In the dough pressing step, the dough and the template are pressed against each other so that part of the dough passes through the back of the template. The height of the cloth to be passed is 1 to 5 mm, preferably 2 to 4 mm.

  The sword used in the sword sliding process may be warped or bent in accordance with the warpage of the template as long as the blade part can slide with a narrow gap as small as 1 mm or less from the mold of the template. If a flat sword with flat blades is used, the object can be pulled out with a simple movement, and the device structure can be simplified. Further, depending on the structure of the template, one sword may slide against a plurality of dies, or a plurality of swords may slide against a plurality of dies. Then, the cloth can be scraped off along the strip shape by the sword sliding step.

  That is, the action of the means 1 for solving the problem is as follows. When the dough is pushed into the front of the template, the dough passes from the strip mold to the back of the template and rises like a mountain range. The mountainous fabric here changes depending on the pushing conditions, and as shown in FIG. 2, the cross section has a shape such as a semicircle 1aa, a triangle 1ab, a trapezoid 1ac, or a combination 1ad thereof. And since the cloth which is not scraped is left on the surface of the template and is fixed at the scraping position by the strip mold, it is not dragged by sliding of the sword. Therefore, even if the dough is soft and sticky, if it is slid on the mold with a flat sword, it can be stably cut into strip-shaped noodle strings having a substantially crescent-shaped cross section as shown in FIG.

  Therefore, noodle strings having a substantially crescent-shaped cross section may be cut out as polygons according to the conditions shown in FIG. 2, and the flat surface of the noodle strings that have been cut flat once is the tension between the front and back sides. When warped on the curved surface due to the relationship, or when raised by scissors, it is more likely to warp due to surface expansion. Therefore, the feature common to the sword-cut noodles of the present invention is as shown in the cross-section of the noodle strings in FIG. 1, and gradually decreases from the central portion 1ax having the thickness of the noodle strings toward both ends of the side portion 1ay. In the point.

  In the problem solving means 2, following the (1) cloth pushing process and (2) sword sliding process of the problem solving means 1, the mold and the cloth are pulled apart each time, and the next cloth pushing process is the previous sword sliding process. (3) A position shifting step is performed to shift the position to a position that is not identical to the position cut out in (1) to (3).

  That is, the means 2 for solving the problem is to press the surface of the template against the fabric and slide the sword on the back side of the template to scrape the noodle strings when pushing a part of the large dough regardless of the mold. Subsequently, the repetitive operation of pulling the template away from the dough and pressing it again at a position that is 50% to 100%, preferably 60% to 90% shifted in the width direction of the strip from the previously cut out position is performed. repeat.

  In the position shifting process, once the bitten dough and the template are pulled apart, it can be pressed again against the position that has been cut away from the previously carved position. It can be cut out evenly. Note that either the template or the fabric may be fixed and either may be moved.

  Then, the direction and edge of the strip shape are aligned, the pressing surface of the fabric is substantially rectangular, one side of the pressing surface is set to be equal to or less than the long side of the strip, and the dimension of the other side of the pressing surface is If determined as a paragraph, the entire pressing surface of the fabric can be cut out evenly.

  This will be described with reference to FIG. The length of the side 1c of the pressing surface of the fabric is n × (where n is the number of strips 3 opened in the template, h is the width of the strips, and k is the interval between adjacent strips. h + k) = 4 × (h + k).

  That is, the operation of the problem solving means 2 is as follows. Because the dough has a gluten structure, if it continues to deform in one direction, it loses its extensibility and becomes rigid. Therefore, the fabric that has been deformed by the passage in the fabric pushing process has reduced extensibility, and it is difficult to continuously pass the same portion of the fabric that has been scraped off in the sword sliding process to the opposite surface of the mold. Accordingly, stiffening of the dough can be avoided by shifting the cutting position of the dough, and the protruding amount of the dough can be stabilized in the dough pushing process. Therefore, according to the means 2 for solving the problems, it is possible to continuously cut out strip-shaped noodle strings having a substantially crescent-shaped cross section.

  The means 3 for solving the problem includes (1) a dough pushing step and (2) an independent dough forming step for forming an independent dough for each of a plurality of molds prior to the sword sliding step. The independent dough is passed in one direction through an introduction path having a strip mold as an outlet and at least a facing surface connected to the long side of the strip as an inner wall, and (1) and (2) are paralleled.

  That is, the means 3 for solving the problem is a case in which a dough having a shape matched to the mold is pushed in. In the independent dough forming process, a dough for each individual strip is formed. It is good to shape | mold to the width | variety of 70%-90% of the length of the long side of a strip shape with the thickness of 80-100%.

  The distance between the faces of the introduction path is 100 to 200%, preferably 120 to 150% of the distance between the two long sides facing each other at the strip which is the exit of the introduction path (width of the strip), and the cloth passes in one direction. A part of the introduction path may be constituted by a belt conveyer, and the belt may be transported and connected to the template, or may be simply pushed behind the dough with a piston and transported through the tunnel-shaped introduction path.

  In the case of pushing in with a piston, (1) the dough pushing-in process uses a plurality of strip molds opened in a template as an exit, pushes the dough into a tunnel-shaped introduction path having a length covering the dough, and the independent dough is integrated. Pass in the direction. The tunnel-shaped introduction path is configured by a sealed inner wall that extends from the ceiling to the left and right sides of the facing surface connected to the long side of the strip, with the piston pushing surface as the inlet and the strip shape as the outlet.

  When the piston is pushed in, the fabric is in close contact with the inner wall of the introduction path, and friction resistance is generated. Uplift.

  Conversely, when the frictional resistance is small when the piston is pushed in, it is necessary to reduce the opening area of the strip mold. For example, when the introduction path is made of a fluororesin plate or a material having good slip, it is preferable that the width of the strip is narrowed equally on both sides at the exit of the introduction path. The narrowing range, angle and ratio, and the material of the cough for narrowing are adjusted according to the properties of the fabric.

  That is, if the dough is passed in one direction by means 3 of solving the problem, the dough extruder and the template can be fixed, so that a certain amount can be extruded continuously and at high speed.

  It should be noted that the dough is fed into the dough extruder by alternately stacking the independent dough and the partition plate in advance so that the dough can be loaded immediately when the piston is returned. Line cutting can be resumed.

  Therefore, according to the means 3 for solving the problem, if the sword is slid at high speed according to the passing amount of the dough and a plurality of doughs for each of the strip molds are cut out at the same time, a sword-cutting noodle with a stable thickness can be easily obtained. Can be mass-produced.

  The sword noodles obtained by any one of the methods 1 to 3 for solving the problems of the present invention may be subjected to a freezing treatment while dusting the noodle strings that have been cut out and keeping the raw noodles. Alternatively, the cut noodle strings may be directly poured into brine and boiled and packaged as bowl noodles. Furthermore, if the frozen noodles are made by rapid freezing after boiled, they can be provided with simple cooking by simply thawing the sword-cut noodles with a full texture.

  According to the present invention, a dough suitable for polyhydric soft and sticky sword-cut noodles can be cut into strip-shaped noodle strings having a substantially crescent-shaped cross section by sliding the sword along the mold. Since it is possible to mass-produce full-fledged sword-cut noodles and supply them to the market, it can contribute to further development of the noodle industry.
