Etymology

The word 'noodle' has its origins in the German word 'Nudel', which means 'a type of pasta'. The first known use of the term in English dates back to the early 19th century, where it referred generally to a small, thin strip of pasta. Noodles have a rich history, with some evidence suggesting their consumption dates back to around 4,000 years ago in China. Different cultures developed their varieties of noodles, adapting the basic idea to suit their local ingredients and tastes. As globalization increased, noodles became a common element in various cuisines around the world, often being incorporated into dishes that reflect a fusion of cultural influences.
