A method for suppressing inversion of instant non-fried noodle products, an instant non-fried noodle product in which inversion of noodle mass is suppressed, and a method for producing the same.

摘要

[Problem] In an instant non-fried noodle product packed in a so-called vertical type cup, to suppress the inversion of a noodle mass in the cup-shaped container due to vibration during transportation. [Solution] In the bottom face of a non-fried noodle mass to be packed in a vertical type cup in a reversed truncated cone shape, said vertical type cup having a taper angle θ1 of 3-15° and a cup height larger than the diameter of the bottom of the cup, a noodle mass bottom recess having a partial shape of a nearly spheroidal body is formed. When the non-fried noodle mass B is shaped so as to satisfy numerical equation 1, the non-fried noodle mass comes into contact with the inside of the cup at least at 3 points within a space enclosed by the cup and the cover thereof, which makes it possible to suppress the inversion of the noodle mass of the instant non-fried noodle product packed in the vertical type cup during transportation. Numerical equation 1: X·T/Y-(R-Y)/2tanθ1 ≥ 0 (wherein: R stands for the diameter of the cup opening; X stands for the diameter of the top face of the noodle mass; X stands for the diameter of the top face of the noodle mass; and Y stands for the length of a diagonal line of the noodle mass).
