The innovative invention of Yifu noodles has a history of more than 200 years, during which time there has been little improvement in the production method in various parts of China, and it is still used as a top noodle in restaurants. Unexpectedly, the flowers inside the wall and the incense outside the wall, this innovative invention actually bore fruitful fruit in Japan. Momofuku Ando, a Chinese-Japanese native, whose original name was Wu Baifu, was born in Chiayi, Taiwan. In 1958, Momofuku Ando successfully developed fried egg noodles using the basic principle of Ifu noodles, the so-called "instantaneous hot oil drying method", and named them "instant noodles". This "ramen noodles, which can be eaten in two minutes after pouring boiling water", became one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century with its speed, convenience, novelty and popularity. Momofuku Ando was thus honored as the "Father of Instant Noodles". The Japanese Nissin Foods Company, founded by Momofuku Ando, was officially registered as a trademark in 1961 and patented for the manufacture of instant noodles in 1962.

Instant noodles, also known as instant noodles, cup noodles, quick-cooked noodles, instant noodles, instant noodles, the south is generally called bowl noodles, Hong Kong is called doll noodles, is a kind of noodle food that can be cooked in hot water in a short period of time.

At present, some Chinese people are trying to put forward the proposition that "the right to invent instant noodles should belong to Yi Bingshou" and apply for "intangible cultural heritage" for Yifu noodles. And some manufacturers, in the packaging bag of instant noodles printed "three fresh noodles", "beef noodles" and other words to show the correct name. At present, nearly 90 billion pieces of instant noodles are consumed in the world every year, and the output value exceeds 100 billion yuan. The small Yifu noodles turned out to be a big industry, which was unexpected by the Chinese people. Yi Bingshou innovated and invented the principle of making Ifu noodles, and it is not known whether Momofuku Ando borrowed the principle of Ibe. But one thing is certain, Momofuku Ando has industrialized and marketized it, and has also made vegetables, spices, and meat sauce convenient. As long as there is boiling water, instant noodles can be easily eaten on trains, cars, ships, and even on the street, and our Yifu noodles are still inseparable from the kitchen. What's more, Momofuku Ando also applied for patent protection. There is really no point in fighting for this invention right.

Through this incident, we have two points of enlightenment, one is that China is known as a big country in gastronomy, but the influence of China's catering industry on the world is very limited, which is really shameful. Chinese catering should go abroad and occupy a place on the world's table. Second, the catering industry must adhere to continuous innovation. According to the different methods, innovation is divided into original innovation, integrated innovation and introduction of technology digestion, absorption and re-innovation. Ibetsu's Ifu noodles are original innovations, while Momofuku Ando's instant noodles should at least be integrated innovations. Although it is difficult to innovate originally, throughout the history of the development of China's catering, innovative cuisines and famous dishes can be described as endless, for example, Dongpo elbows, kung pao chicken cubes, boiled fish, etc. are all original innovation achievements. It can be asserted that only innovation can revitalize our catering industry; which restaurant insists on innovation and constantly introduces new dishes, which restaurant will prosper and make money.
