Abstract
A noodle cup is disclosed containing a lump of instantly cookable noodles having an evenly distributed, reduced moisture content in which the noodle lump has a less dense lower portion as compared with the upper portion and a shape corresponding to the inside of the hermetically sealed cup, which tapers to a base of smaller diameter than the top. The noodle lump is disposed in the cup in frictional engagement with the sides of the cup and at a spaced distance from the top and bottom of the cup. The noodle lump is formed by filling the cup shaped mold with 50-80% by volume of gelatinized noodles and then dehydrating the noodles by dipping the mold into heated frying oil so that the noodles rise to the top of the mold.
