置を提供することにある。When raw noodles, for example, buckwheat noodles are produced using the above-mentioned noodle making apparatus, usually buckwheat flour, water, taro, toro, wheat flour, etc. are put as binders, and this is added. The hopper 101 is put into the cylindrical body 106, kneaded with the screw 102, and the noodle strings 300 are extruded so as to hang down from the large number of through holes 103a to make buckwheat noodles. The noodle strings 300 extruded from the through holes 103a were interrupted, and it was not possible to obtain buckwheat noodles having a predetermined length. By the way, the inventor of the present application has been studying for many years to produce raw buckwheat using raw material of 100% buckwheat without using a binder, but in the case of raw material of 100% buckwheat without a binder, As described above, it is not suitable for the production by the conventional noodle making apparatus. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional circumstances, and the object thereof is to use buckwheat flour 1 without using a tether.
An object of the present invention is to provide a noodle-making apparatus suitable for producing raw soba using 00% raw materials.
