An object of the present invention is to provide good-texture healthy boiled noodles or raw noodles having an effective health function of calcium alginate and excellent in texture by imparting a health function of calcium alginate to noodles, and in addition, without impairing original texture of noodles, and in order to solve the object, in a method for producing boiled noodles or raw noodles employing, as noodle making steps in a noodle production method, (A) a mixing and kneading step of kneading a dough by adding kneading water to a powder raw material for noodle production obtained through a mixture of raw materials containing wheat flour； and (B) a noodle making step of forming the dough into noodle strings, a 270-mesh pass pulverized calcium alginate powder is mixed in the powder raw material for noodle production in a ratio of 4 to 8 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the powder raw material for noodle production, and thus, healthy boiled noodles or raw noodles with the health function of calcium alginate and retaining a good texture of noodles are produced. The present invention provides good-texture healthy boiled noodles or raw noodles with original texture of noodles retained, effectively retaining the health function such as an effect of inhibiting postprandial blood glucose level increase, and in addition, without causing, in production of the noodles, deterioration of viscoelasticity and the like of noodle tissue and deterioration of texture otherwise caused in adding calcium alginate.
