Extended information on the origin of instant noodles

As early as before the invention of instant noodles, in ancient times, people in the east and west fried cooked noodles and served them with soup. In China, similar pasta has been called "Yi Mian" or "Yi Fu Mian" (that is, what Taiwan Province called "spaghetti").

According to legend, Yi Bingshou celebrated his mother's birthday at home in the Qing Dynasty. Due to the large number of guests, the chef was in a hurry to put the cooked egg noodles into the boiling oil pan by mistake, so he had to scoop them up and serve them with soup. Because the guests were full of praise after eating, this dish was handed down. Early instant noodles were still packaged with Yi Mian and Yi Fu Mian.

It is said that the first person to make instant noodles was a cook of a magistrate named Yi in Yangzhou, China. He added eggs to the flour, rolled it into thin slices, cut it into filaments, boiled it in water, and immediately fried it in oil to dry. The noodles treated in this way can be soaked in hot water at any time, which is very convenient to eat.

As for the non-fried instant noodles, it can be traced back to the noodle invented by Han Xin army in the third year of the Western Han Dynasty in China (205 years ago). When Han Xin leads Heyang on the Yellow River100000;

When preparing to attack Wei Bao, the king of the Western Wei Dynasty in Hedong, in order to solve the problem of carrying military food, buckwheat flour and wheat flour were cooked into eight-ripe big cakes and cut into wide strips. This kind of bread is not only convenient to carry around, but also edible as long as it is boiled with water, so it can also be regarded as the earliest form of instant noodles.
