The present invention addresses the problem of providing a method of drying non-fried noodles in order to obtain non-fried noodles in which individual noodles do not stick together, and the noodles come apart more easily and have excellent restorability. In the present invention, a step for drying non-fried noodles comprises a step for feeding alphaized noodles into a retainer either having small holes on a bottom surface, the total surface area of the small holes being 30% or less of the surface area of the bottom surface, or not having small holes on the bottom surface, i.e., a retainer having an aperture ratio of 0-30%, and blowing a high-speed air flow, preferably an air flow having a wind speed of 50 m/s or higher, onto the individual noodles on the retainer from above the retainer.本發明係有關一種非油炸麵之乾燥方法，其用以獲得麵線不會彼此糾結、容易鬆解且復原性佳之非油炸麵線。本發明之非油炸麵線之乾燥步驟包含：將已α化處理之麵線投入於一容器，並由該容器上方以高速氣流噴吹麵塊而使其乾燥之步驟，較佳的情況是，噴吹該高速氣流使該麵線暴露於50m/s以上之風速。該容器的底面設有小孔，且該小孔的總面積為該底面之面積的30%以下，或其底面並未設小孔，亦即其開口率為0~30%。
