PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for obtaining, easily within a short period, noodles yielding a favorable appearance and texture comparable to those of aged hand-rolled noodles.SOLUTION: The provided method is a manufacturing method of noodles including a treatment of aging noodle strings having a water content of 10-38% within an atmosphere having a temperature of 50 to 100°C for 10 to 100 hours where the maximal viscosity of water into which a ground matter of pre-aged noodle strings has been dispersed at a concentration of 14 mass% is 1000-4550 mPa s, the maximal viscosity of water into which a ground matter of post-aged noodle strings has been dispersed at a concentration of 14 mass% is commensurate with 120-180% of the maximal viscosity of the water into which the ground matter of pre-aged noodle strings has been dispersed, and the color difference value (dE) of the post-aged noodle strings with respect to the pre-aged noodle strings is 0.5-6.0.
