ABSTRACT:
A method of forming extruded pasta shapes is disclosed. The method comprises forming pasta shaped by feeding a feedstock comprises of glutinous flour and water to an extruder that is equipped with a die plate having a plurality of holes, and extruding said alimentary paste through the holes in the extruder die plate by internal pressure. Extrusion is performed in such a manner that the extruded alimentary paste remains substantially uncooked. The improvement provided by the invention comprises heating the extruder die plate to a temperature of at least about 130.degree. F. (about 54.degree. C.), and preferably about 160.degree. F. (about 71.degree. C.), in order to attain the advantages of the invention. In a preferred embodiment, a coating is provided on a portion of the interior of the holes such that heat transfer to the paste is substantially inhibited until the cross section of the hole has reached its smallest value. A heated extrusion die plate and the shaped alimentary paste prepared therewith are also disclosed.
