Kuroda told the world record officials that the combination of ingredients and quantifying balances and proportions has \"always fascinated me because the food is enjoyable when those figures and combinations are in sync.\"

\"I get great satisfaction in nailing that,\" the new world record holder said.

Kuroda also holds the records for the most noodle portions prepared in three minutes, the thinnest handmade Chinese noodle -- 0.22 mm -- and the most noodle strings made in one minute -- 65,536.
