To provide a production process for frozen noodles in which the noodle lines are formed in the usual manner and the resultant raw noodle lines are continuously frozen and then packaged as they are, in the state of straight lines to give the noodles retaining good taste of the raw materials, the packed noodles give a fine view of compactness and orderliness in comparison with the usual frozen noodles undergoing pregelatinization treatment before freezing, and can be subdivided into a needed amount for cooking, in addition the efficiency of packaging works is increased surprisingly high, the time needed for from the noodle cutting or noodle extrusion to the noodle packaging is only 2 or 3 minutes.

The raw noodle lines prepared through the usual process are directly frozen in the straight lines, cut and packaged. For this purpose, the raw noodle lines from the cutting-out step or the extrusion step are pulled in on the conveyer for the freezer, as a slight tension is applied to the row noodle lines, and steeply frozen whereby the noodle lines are continuously processed until the packaging step, as the noodle lines are kept in straight line. The metering operations can be performed in an error level of about 1/100 by adjusting the thickness and the count of the cut-out or extruded noodles and by adjusting the noodle length, when the noodle lines are cut in a prescribed length.
