Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to multilayer noodles and a method for producing the same.

Background Art

[0002] When boiled noodles are served immediately after boiling, a difference in texture (gradient) occurs between the inside and outside of the noodles due to the moisture gradient inside the noodles, resulting in a satisfying texture. On the other hand, when boiled noodles are stored, the difference in texture caused by the above moisture gradient becomes smaller, so the eating satisfaction decreases.

[0003] In order to improve the texture of noodles, multilayer noodles composed of multiple dough layers have been proposed. Furthermore attempts have also been made to further improve the texture of multilayer noodles. For example, in Patent Document 1, as noodles with good texture even after the passage of the cooking time, an outer layer obtained using a raw material mainly composed of starches and an inner layer obtained using a raw material mainly composed of wheat flour and to which protein is added are provided, and the ratio of the thickness of the outer layer to the thickness of the inner layer is in the range of outer layer / inner layer / outer layer = 1.5 to 2.5 / 1 / 1.5 to 2.5, and a three-layer noodle in which the raw material used for the outer layer contains 50 to 85% by mass of tapioca starch and 5 to 15% by mass of gelatinized starch is described. In Patent Document 2, in a multilayer cooked noodle composed of layer A and layer B where layer A constitutes one or both sides of the outer layer, each of layer A and layer B contains a cereal powder composed of a predetermined amount of wheat flour and tapioca starch and has a predetermined crude protein content and by making the crude protein content and the water addition amount of layer A lower than the crude protein content of layer B it is described that noodles with good texture and slow aging can be obtained. In Patent Document 3, a frozen noodle is produced by gelatinizing and freezing noodle strands obtained from a three-layer noodle belt in which an inner layer noodle belt is sandwiched between two outer layer noodle belts In the manufacturing method, strong flour is used for the inner layer raw material flour, and semi-strong flour or medium-strength flour is used for the outer layer raw material flour. It is stated that this allows for the production of frozen noodles with a good texture after slow thawing. Patent Document 4 describes a multilayer structure having an A layer and a B layer, where the A layer constitutes the outer layer. Noodles, wherein layers A and B contain cereal flours and, if necessary, starches, and at least B The layers contain refined protein derived from durum wheat, and the grain flours and starches in layers A and B The crude protein content of refined durum wheat relative to the total amount is P and Q, respectively. When Q ≥ P, a multilayer noodle is described. Patent document 5 describes wheat flour 35-6 Contains 0% by weight, 25-50% by weight of etherified phosphate cross-linked starch, and 5-15% by weight of gluten. Outer layer noodle sheet manufactured from outer layer noodle raw material flour, 0-20% by weight of wheat flour, etherified phosphate crosslinked precipitate Inner layer noodles made from inner layer noodle raw material flour containing 60-80% flour by weight and 15-25% gluten by weight.
