Project At A Glance
1. Project : Noodles Manufacturing
4. Capacity : 225 MT
PRODUCT
Fresh noodles are an extruded product made of tapioca flour and maida. They are long
thread-like of 0.22 to 0.4 mm. thickness. This is a eatable food itemunder instant food
products and very popular now-a-days as break fast food. It is one of the most
conventional foods available in the market.
In India around 12 million tonnes of potato is grown which is about 4% of the total
world production. However, the per capita consumption of potatoes is low. It is
estimated that 25% of the potatoes, which are spoiled due to various reasons such as
transportation, type of packing, non-availability of cold storage capacities during
harvesting season, glut in the market etc., could be saved by making various preserved
potato products. Potato wafer is one ofsuch products which has a great potential as this
is considered as one of the traditional foods of India. Potato wafers are needed to be
made in a scientific manner and under hygienic Conditions
Market
Noodles and chowmein, a ready-to-eat food item is very popular in developed countries
and now it has created good market potential in our country also and is becoming a
popular item. The factors governing its demand are:
1. Increasing population of the country.
2. Rapid industrialization in the country.
3. Increase in the purchasing capacity of the people.
4. Durability of the product.
5. Change in people’s eating habits especially the younger generation.
6. It is ready-to-eat product.
7. Convenience of preparation. Keeping in view the above factors, the demand of this
product is likely to increase manifold in the coming years.
The popularity of snack foods is growing fast day-by-day and potato and banana wafers
have emerged as a potential snack food. A number of organised as well as unorganised
groups are already there catering to the needs of tea stalls, restaurants, railway stations,
tourist places etc. Still there is a huge demand to be met for these products in interior
and remote places in different parts of the country.
Manufacturing Process
TECHNICAL ASPECTS
Process of Manufacture
Noodles is the term being used to designate products made from blend of
flours, the major component of which is tapioca flour and maida. A noodle is
manufactured in different sizes, hollow as well as solid, for different cooking methods.
Some are made for cooking and others are for frying. The noodles proposed in this
Profile are for frying.
Typical Blending for 16 Kg. of Product
Maida : 8 Kgs.
Starch : 7 Kgs.
Sodium bicarbonate : 850 gms.
Salt : 150 gms.
Edible colour : Q.S.
Process in Detail
Dry Mixing
The average moisture content of dry mixes is 10-11%. The three ingredients maida,
starch and soda bicarbonate are blended in a vertical mixer alongwith
edible colour.
Dough Formation
Satisfactory dough can be made from the above blend only by using boiled water, when
a part of the starch is gelatinized. The ingredients are mixedin dough mixer for about
12 to 15 minutes.
Extrusion
The kneaded dough is then transferred to noodles making machine where extruded
material of desired shape and length is obtained by using an appropriate type of die
and suitably adjusting the distance between the dyesurface and cutting blade. The
moisture content of the product at this stage is about 33%.
Pre-drying
The cut noodles goods from the cutting machine fall on wooden trays. The product
undergoes surface drying and becomes sufficiently hard enough to be handled without
sticking or being crushed. The moisture content of the pre-dried product is about 29.5%.
Drying
The pre-dried product is finally semidried. The moisture content of the product will be
17%. Drying is done by exposure to indirect sunrays or placing in shade. The noodles
dried as above do not have a satisfactory cooking quality and undergo a heavy loss on
cooking. This can be reduced considerably by giving heat treatment to the product. This
is optioned as this gives a brown colour to the product which may not be appealing to
some of the customers. Recent development in the manufacture of noodles is that the
product is exposed to steam. The steamed product has three advantages: (1) longer
shelf-life (2) harder grain, and (3) better eating quality than unsteamed product.
Steaming is done by exposing the product in thin layer to steam for about 15 minutes.
The steamed and subsequently dried product has a moisture content of about 10%. The
steaming is done before the product is semi-dried.
