One of the foods that can be eaten instantly is noodles. How fast can you make and serve noodles after cooking? A machine in China does this in just 48 seconds! A fully automatic machine is making noodles in a shop in Shenzhen, southeast China. No, not instant noodles. From kneading the dough to cooking the noodles.

People are standing in line to eat noodles at the ‘Future Noodles Restaurant’ to have this new experience. The restaurant, which is only 8 square meters, offers more than 10 types of noodles. The price is between 6 and 20 yuan. There are no employees in the shop. Customers pay the price and order the noodles themselves and can see the entire process of making noodles in the machine through a transparent window. The machine first mixes water and flour to make yeast. Then the yeast is placed on a disk and pressed to make noodles. The machine takes only eight seconds to do this.

Then, in a bowl, the noodles are mixed with meat and other ingredients and cooked in hot water. This takes 40 seconds. Then, a mechanical arm of the machine serves up steaming hot noodles topped with onions.

The company that made the noodle-making machine says it took them 10 years to invent and develop the machine.
