This is how Japanese dry noodles are made in a factory in Japan. I'll take you inside, Hakubaku, one of the most popular dry noodle producers in Japan, and give a full factory tour as well as a behind the scenes look from when the flour is delivered to the noodle factory all the way through to when the dry noodles are packaged and shipped for delivery. I even talk to some of the factory workers to see how they craft delicious noodles. I'll also take you inside of their company office to show you how their research & development and engineer teams produce their amazing noodles. A complete guide on the noodle making process in Japan. Definitely a great showcase of how noodles are made in Japan.

anyone want to visit Japan after pandemic over ? love the travelling and food there, hehehe
The green noodles, most-likely, have powdered green tea in them, or another edible, powdered green plant mixed-in with the flour. There are Soba noodles like this, already.
Great video as usual. Please make it more lengthy. I really look forward on your next video😁😁😁
Paolo, have you already made a video on japanese rice farmers and the post harvest facilities?
Fascinating. The inhouse engineering was a surprise. They really do it all.
Yeah, like whut da hek? Some big manufacturing corps I know would never be capable of such feasts. They even can't maintenance their machines right, let alone making new ones. LMAO.
Right? Even large manufacturers here in NA wouldn't let their in-house engineers go and build these machines, or (god forbid) operate the machinery and equipment themselves
@@OrganDonor94 Japan….simply amazing
Uh... You guys got it very wrong. Most large US factories have their own inhouse engineering teams.
@@peacew6 Yeah they'd be R&D. Just about every company has one.
Dude, you’ve got some serious film-making skills. Love this series.
Glad you enjoy it!
Agreed. If I had a company and needed a corporate video, I would hire Paolo for sure.
@@PaolofromTOKYO love your work and your videos Paolo keep it up 👍🏼
@@PaolofromTOKYO also thanks for 60 fps, really helps to feel the atmosphere
@@PaolofromTOKYO I don’t know if you have tried reaching out to Japans tourism office or their manufacturing office but you are an amazing ambassador for the country and positively impact the country’s imagine throughout the world!
I'm enjoying this series, it's a great way to see a world even the Japanese don't know!!
I was thinking the same thing!! Japanese people must find this so interesting
oh akanemaru and junjiro didnt expect to find you here, you guys are big food lovers =P
@@choicelam Oh, hello! I'm a fan of this channel! :-)
I wonder if he has a tie into Japan’s tourism and trade offices because he really is an amazing ambassador for the country
@@trentbateman nah no tourism office would think promoting a noodle factory to tourists is a good idea lol.. it's most likely Paolo himself just calls these places and see if they want to do a series with him for free publicity. These are great PR videos for a company.
As a food technologist, seeing how they manufacture, equipment , the lab, the sensory panel and basically everything is so interesting! So different and so much precision compared to where im from 😅 everything is so organised and clean omg
Shouldn't everything be clean in a food factory lol
Reason why it’s like that is because of their culture. They have immense pride in their work and what they produce. Doesn’t matter who occupation or industry it it, you see it time and time again in every single of these videos.
wrgg
@@FD-mz1id this comment shows that u are not in the f&b industry
@@audreylim3807 he never said he was lol
OMG!! Noodles Factory!!🤤🍜 It's heaven for me. 😍
Omg me too :) I freaking love ramen. And my favorite is the seafood ramen from nissin
I feel you^^
both my favorites in one video!
Same here…. 🤤
@@daphnietudor2953 OMG YES
I wouldn't be surprised if a big network comes to hire him to do documentaries, my boi's getting too good at this lmao
Made is Japan is such a great series!
We have a Hakubaku factory in Australia that uses exactly the same machines. The factory was set up by Hakubaku to take advantage of the excellent wheat grown in Australia, and they now export noodles back to Japan :)
That’s great strategy from them on not putting their eggs solely in one basket. Because you’ll never know what will happen in the future in case on material shortages, disaster etc. So they make sure there are always quality noodles enough for everybody 😋
Cooking the noodles while watching this video
Hi There! Yes! Our Australian plant produces our organic noodles (soba, ramen, udon..) for worldwide consumption.
Makes so much sense seeing how Australia is in the top 5 biggest wheat producers. No shortage of raw ingredients!
I love how the company is continuously working to improve their production process, making more efficient and precise machines etc. This is a perfect example of the Japanese concept of “Kaizen” (continuous, incremental improvement) that makes Japanese products and service so good. We can see this in almost any industry here. “Selling well” is not enough. You have to keep changing things up and finding ways to make improvements.
Then there's Nintendo and gamefreak lol
Made in Japan and Day in the Life series are both just soooooo gooooood. Thank you, Paolo and everyone involved in creating such informative, entertaining, and beautiful content! 🙌🏼💙✨
It is always mind-blowing to me how people can create machines for every little or not too little tasks in factories, it's just amazing.
@@ponderingspirit but how will humans keep up with market demand? especially in the age of globalization? or are you saying that human production should only be for local customers? In that case, the product will be expensive I believe? So your product has to be really good compared to machine made products or else customers will buy cheaper products since we wont be able to provide value for money and value for quality at the same time.
@@ponderingspirit The reality of the situation is that humans could never even begin to compete with the precision, speed and sheer throughput of a machine. It also requires far less people to achieve the same level of production. For example, a single driver of a combine harvester and a driver of a truck can outpace an entire medium sized village in harvesting a field. Another example is a factory like this, wether it's crafting noodles, or things like cars.
Our modern society can exist ONLY because of these machines, and the middle class escentially owes its existance to mass production. If not for machines like these, we'd have to return to an age where more than 90% of the human population was dedicated to food production, with all other technology that exists in today world being impossible (who is gonna mine the resources, process them and create that neat TV when everyone is preocupied by just producing food?). And that doesn't mean returning to the middle ages, but the 1800s.
Also, implying mass production is synonymous with polution is just plain wrong. Mass production can be done without polution, or maintaining polution to similar levels as "local human scale production". The pollution problem rears it's ugly head when profits start to be more important than everything else. It would be better to use aluminum or glass for beberages, put plastics are cheaper. We can supply our factories with enough energy without polluting our environment, but fossile fuels are cheaper. We can mass produce products to last a long time, only needing replacement every 15 or more years, but if we plan for obsolescence the factory owner can get more money since customers have to buy the products again sooner. What's more, we could make needing to buy a replacement pointless, or something done once in a lifetime if we make our products serviceable and easy to repair, making the parts they need available. But if we make it as hard as possible, even "breaking" the entire product of someone attempts it we can make ven more money by forcing the customer to buy a product when the old one only needs a simple replacement.
Mass Production is not the problem. The problem is the capitalist system which, in today's world, governs it's use. Where profits matter more than anything, even the environment and the customers. Even when these profits are not really needed, since the factory would produce money anyway even without all these cheap tricks and cost saving measures that destroy our environment.

Ah noodles, the foundation of every college student 😭
Next year I'm going to college and I dont know how to feel about that😅😅
nah, those are too fancy. cup of noodles is the foundation of every college student.
@@Billy-dm5pc same
@@Billy-dm5pc Try eating some Nongshim ramen. The golden standard of affordable pouch ramen. You'll love it.
@@soopahfly6692 yup
Some years ago it was nearly impossible to get those noodles here in my part of Germany. But one store stocked them finally - but for somewhere above 2€ per 250g pack. :(
And then one day I was in the store that sells mainly "thrown away" food - overproductions, returns (if there is something wrong on a pallete, it gets returned compeltely instead of investing the time to find out which 5 of 500 items is broken) and stuff that is close to the best-by date.
There they had 1 package for 60cent, 3 packages for 1,5€!
I walked out that store with 5kg of noodles, lasted me nearly 3 years for my asien noodle needs :D
日々の生活の裏で、こんなに手間とコストを掛け、より良いものを作っている方がいる事に改めて感謝とありがとうという気持ちを大切にしようと思いました💓
日本人でも簡単には入れない所に潜入するシリーズがこれからも続きますように🙏✨
まだまだコロナ対策で大変ですが、Paoloさんファミリーもお身体を大事にしてください！
日本人みっけ( 〃▽〃)
パオロはいつも素晴らしい動画
作ってくれてますよね。
日本人も応援してますよ～
probably the best part about this video.. is that the company does more than just make noodles in the factory... but also develop them and test them and also develop their own machinery and more all in-house in 1 building. its not your average simple production factory.
I looooove how neat and clean everything is.
Yeah it's not India or America
I can imagine the process you have to go through to get permission to film all this. The angles, the time and the skill you put into your content.
You deserve more followers!
Love to see these videos! Everything about them is amazing! And getting to see how thing see made like this is awesome!
Glad you like them!
i love how the company actually lets you video the production line, bcs even if competitors want to know how you do them, it's nearly impossible to copy it fully lol
I love how open these companies are to having you tour around their factory!
I'd love to see more of the engineer's work. Fabricating a noodle cutting machine from scratch must be an interesting process.
The idea that a noodle company has an entire machine design team to make their noodle making machines is just SO FRIGGIN COOL
Wow, manually checking the thickness of noodles even though we know the machine will mould a uniform size of noodle strand, another great Japanese precision and quality control.
The science, engineering, and R&D stuff was AMAZING. I love to see it
The dedication that goes into everything produced in Japan, especially food, always completely blows me away! Thank you for all of these super interesting videos.
Japan is 100times ahead than my country and specially the hygiene standards are maintained so well!! If i had a chance i would definitely move to Japan for the rest of my life..i am in love with Japan!
Soup is my favorite thing to eat, but noodles are a very close second. Noodles and soup together is so good!
the access that Paolo gets in behind the making of all the documentary features of a day in the life of ,many others is impressive. we get to see the detailed of how certain professionals work or how certain factories operate and so on, your videos are always inspiring Paolo and Maiko.
It always amazing me just how effective Japanese culture is. I wish we could implement some of these things here in the U.S!
Loved this episode. Made me appreciate Japanese noodles a whole lot more.
10/10 really enjoyed it
A recurrence of small capable teams, neat work and biggish productions and in house. Love it Paolo, thanks for the great content
The factory is also complex but these workers are skilled they all make it look so simple and fast , i like the Automated Crane haha
Nothing beats spending time moving around with different places with you. Really appreciate all the time that you've put into making these videos and sharing it with everyone! Thank you!
best noodle factory i've seen. very clean! this is the noodles you want in your body!
Dude, your videos are like asmr to me. I'm really grateful for the work you put out for us. These videos are strangely peaceful.
Never liked noodles until I discovered the kinds and meals from Japan 😋
The Intro alone was enough to make me Hungry 😮
Dude, you are very interesting to listen to. Your voice is soft and soothing to listen to. I've been doing research online and played random videos to help me concentrate. I happened to stumble upon your videos after listening to a couple of mythbusters videos and I haven't stopped after a few hours of watching/listening. I've literally been watching these all night and it's the morning already. The information you are supplying is fascinating to say the least and keeps me going back to see the different things in each video that you show. I can't stop watching your videos and hope that you keep the content coming.
Your videos are so high-quality! This is something I would expect to see on Travel Channel or Discovery.
Great vid, I *love* factories! (I’m such a geek 😆)
I was surprised to see the air shower before entering the production area. I’ve often been in “bunny suits” and through many air showers myself when touring production facilities for cameras, lenses or semiconductors (I’m in the photo industry), but I never imagined they’d use them for food production. I suspect that’s just yet another part of what’s special about “made in Japan” :-)
Man, I really love this series so much. It makes me learn more about Industrial Engineering (which basically what my current college course is). Thank you man! Continue creating wonderful contents!
The job designing and building the production equipment would be awesome!
Hah! Only a minute in and I’ve already seen the most amazing part! Look at how through their sanitation pre is to entering the production area! That is a HUGE part of why Japanese food is so safe! Sugoi!
Judging from the young lady reactions at the sampling site, it seems like she was secretly praying that Paolo won’t interview her 😂
Great series Paolo! Fine work again as always and thank you for bringing us on this journey.
I hate to bust your perception
,but he personally asks everyone before he interviews, the professional nice guy that he is.
@@raymondjames57 not doubting that but the reactions from her still really cute 😂
You're maybe right！😂 she must be shy😂
10:17 LOL. "Whaddup dough" i see what you did there sir. 10/10
Please do not stop making these, they are all so well made! Thank you Paolo
This is one of the coolest videos on your channel! Getting to see who built and maintain the machines is just so cool! I love seeing that aspect of the business. The infrastructure for how Japan runs a business really is top notch. It's so clean!
Another Paolo video to brighten my day (and make me hungry🤤)
Thank you! I loved watching how the noodles were made. I love that the factories not only make the product but create their own machines to make the products. I can’t wait to visit Japan
It was so much fun to watch. Thank you Paolo
Damn their office is super spacious and clean, just like how i imagine an office should be.
I really love this series from you Paolo, I learn a lot and it broaden my understanding of Japan.🥰🙌
I enjoyed the video so much! Thank you, Paolo!
@Paolo from Tokyo another wonderful start to the weekend!! Thank you. Always a good notification for your videos.
Do a day in a life of you shooting editing "a day in a life " ! It sounds super difficult, but my mind is always blow who you do all of this yourself in the first place. Like it's really cool and amazing.
Incredible how they seem to do almost everything in house. I could be wrong but I think a lot of companies these days tend to outsource a lot of stuff but not this one.
i guess it'd be easier for QC if everything is inhouse.
You show everything in just 11 minutes🔥 More Videos❤️ Filipino Fan Here
Yum! Thank you! Off to buy noodles…
❤️ 🍜
Much love and many thanks from the States!
Love this video! I’m trying to learn Japanese I think it would be awesome if you included how you asked these questions to various people. One really hard thing is to know the level of formality to use in different situations. Maybe an idea for a separate channel?
When it comes to manufacturing, Japanese quality control and efficiency are second to none.
Maybe the Swiss? Hard to say though!
@Onion Dark Knight stop defending groups that you are not a part of, you sound desperate.
@Onion Dark Knight You do know that China, Chairman Mao, Murdered almost (50 Million) of its own people in what they called the Great Leap Forward. This happened after WW2.
And let's not forget European history. Do you really want to get into a pissing contest over which civilization is the worst when it comes to rape, genocide, slavery, and murder? Because Japan won't even be in the top ten. England alone has Murdered (hundreds of millions). Not to mention the incest all of the European monarchies engaged in for almost 500 years!
@@mumfordalien1794 If you want chocolate, then yes, the Swiss are experts. But when it comes to reliable machinery and cars, that is what Japan is known for.
@@theylied1776 I was leaning more toward the Swiss perfection of timing mechanisms and optics.
Just offering an opinion, I think different nations are good at different things, and that is a result of their history.
Japan and the automobile industry has a lot to do with a massive shift from industry producing machines of war (mostly airplanes) to producing consumer goods like cars.
Japan has made an insane economic recovery since ww2, heck I think they are 3rd in the world following China
That was amazing to watch.
What's more amazing is your soundtrack. It's bopping.
Paolo your enthusiasm is contagious 😆 love this series and love this channel!
As always, it's so interesting !! Thank you so much for showing us all of those incredible jobs and products🎉💜
Awesome way to start my weekend! I really love the quality and production on these day in the life
i love the composition of each of your shots and the way you set up all your videos
Thank you so much for making these videos! These are great little videos that I watch when I go to bed before going to sleep. I learn so kuch about Japan and go to bed with such positive vibes. Thanks Paolo from Tokyo!
Wonderful series ! I am fascinated by these insights into methods, processes and the people behind products and services. Well done again Paolo. Keep them coming. Hello from London : - )
I was an employee for 12 years. After resigning from my old Job in February 2020, watching your video made me want to come back to work in a company again. I hope I can join one of the Japanese companies like this someday. They had good habits and environments of working, and I really into this. Arigato nee.
I also heard that they make you work >8 hours a day including all the social activities you will be forced with your boss after work day ends like going to drinks, meetings outside office hours etc
@@blasttrash I heard that as well, but I think just some of them doing that after work.
Hey Paolo, I just stumbled upon your youtube channel and have been watching them like crazy! There is definitely a need for this information. Keep up the good work!
I love this guys videos. The editing is just great.
Great vid! Love the effort you put in, you're probably one of the best in educational lifestyle/culture videos.
Pablo you just make me hungry even though I just eat pasta
But you wouldn't be hungry if you ate heathy food!
Paolo- I like this type of show you do… showing different jobs in Japan and a day to show from start to finish… keep making this thanks for your hardwork
What I like about these videos is that you explore the place, making it more in-depth
I was already hungry before watching this but now I’m really hungry watching this
Thank you Paolo for this series!
My pleasure!
The master(shishou) even measured the distance of each noodle groups on the conveyer 😆
PAOLO! This series is terrific! Thank you for making these :) I enjoy them so much.
looking into step by step is really satisfying
AWESOME VIDEO!! I have always wondered about how noodles are made in production 😂 These workers seem so happy too:) maybe because they are in Paolo's incredible channel, lol
Can we all appreciate the fact that this guy never disappointed us with his content. 🤗 🥰 🤚
Bro, I LOVE your enthusiasm, it's really brightened my day!😊
Thanks for sending noods! Love the channel! Keep up the good work!
Love these videos, and I have these noodles in my house in the US as we speak.
haha, that's awesome!
„It’s difficult for babies to eat noodles that are cut randomly.“ 🤣
Japaneseness fed from your first spoon of noodles. 😁
Really enjoyed watching this one Paolo!
thanks for always bringing us high quality informative content 🙂
Such a great video! Thank you for sharing our process with your audience.
Paolo, I’m obsessed with this series and all your content! Much love from Philadelphia pa.
No time to watch it right now but I'll leave the like right now since all your videos are damn good
Great video. Thanks for putting in the hard work to make this
This is just amazing. Thanks a lot Man!
you and your day in life series are genuinely my one of most favorites of youtube contents.
and that is because not only you trying to show bright side of japan and human being overall, but you actually explain that with real people.
i mean, i still respect other youtuber who showing negative side of japan, but sometime their explanation feels little bit personal, and exaggerated and they just seems want to stand out in youtube with negativity.
being positive is feels more fresh out contents at this point, in my opinion.
I’ve always loved to see how things are made. This was such a soothing video to watch and so interesting to see a snapshot of a place I know little about. This noodle lover is happy!
Awesome! We always love any videos in this series! 😁👍Thanks for the fun and super interesting video! 🥳 Also we enjoy your videos because you and your family are so down to earth and genuinely nice, kind people! 🌷💖
My absolute favourite series on youtube!!!
OMG i was just thinking about this series and i got the notification im super happy ~ !!! Thank you Paolo for doing these series love it always
This is TV quality production and the host is so enthusiastic. I wonder if he takes a and enthusiasm pill. I love the questioning of the staff.. Like a six year old enthusiasm.
Love your style of video and narration, great for relaxing
