<p>A food dough shaping method that forms food dough provided with a framing portion on the periphery comprises: (a) a step of placing food dough on a carrying member; (b) a step of plunging downward projecting portions of a plurality of expanding members that can freely move in the radial direction into the food dough inward of the outer circumference of the food dough; and (c) a step of stretching the food dough so that the interior surrounded by the expanding members is thin by moving the expanding members radially outward. The method further comprises a step of shaping the portion of the food dough that was stretched to be thin so as to be thinner by pressing the food dough toward the carrying member by a pressing member.</p>
