These twisted products were formerly made by cutting a handful of vermicelli or spaghetti in 8 or 10 inch length and putting this products in a tray for drying.
In Europe, ‘nidis’ are popular. These noodles arranged in a shape somewhat like a bird’s nest, The noodles are extruded in a cluster and hang down into a hollow metal cylinder.
When the noodle is cut off near the die, the air jet whirls it into desired form, which is then dropped onto a drying tray.
