This must be an Ontario-based problem. ;-) But I can tell you, they were ridiculously EXPENSIVE! They might have been five dollars a box? So keep buying them in MI, my friend.Joy Bugaloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03357079523912829719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21604084.post-50876006021645728612008-11-02T11:36:00.000-05:002008-11-02T11:36:00.000-05:00When you soak them in hot water, they soften up a ...When you soak them in hot water, they soften up a bit so you dont need as much sauce in the lasagna. Ina's version is not very saucy so maybe thats why. Its also not very thick. <BR/><BR/>I didnt mean you cant find no boil noodles in Canada, I meant you cant find the BARILLA brand. ( they look like sheets of fresh pasta, no curley edges) Sorry if I wasnt clear.Randihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06706134539834283798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21604084.post-58114800351829558452008-11-02T11:31:00.000-05:002008-11-02T11:31:00.000-05:00I assure you that you CAN get the no-boil noodles ...I assure you that you CAN get the no-boil noodles in Canada, as that's where I got the ones I used for Aida's lasagna. But why would you want to pre-soak "no-boil" noodles?? May as well just boil them then! Silly, Ina!Joy Bugaloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03357079523912829719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21604084.post-59691774062070372742008-11-01T19:14:00.000-04:002008-11-01T19:14:00.000-04:00Finally, I'm vindicated.

You must try Ina Gartens turkey sausage lasagna. It uses the barilla no-boil noodles that you soak in hot water for 20 min. It works perfectly. Btw, you can't find those noodles in Canada : ). It kills me that the ricotta is not with the other cottage cheese, its always in the fancy dairy section. Robin says her mom never used ricotta when making lasagna, it was always cottage cheese. I make 1 lasagna( CI's spinach lasagna) that uses pureed cottage cheese, but I totally perfer ricotta. <BR/><BR/>I have to report back about NY, we had fun!! Btw, did you notice the butter prices? Ridiculous!!!!Randihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06706134539834283798noreply@blogger.com
