Will no boil lasagna pasta work?
I bought no boil lasagna pasta by mistake. Will there be enough liquid in the ragu for this pasta to work? Or should I stop by the store and pick up some standard lasagna pasta?

When boiling the noodles, just cook until done. When making a pasta casserole like lasagna, I add extra liquid (water or broth) if using no-boil in a recipe that called for regular.
This helps both the noodles and the rest of the dish cook thoroughly.
I would recommend this from the start, but if you are afraid of the dish becoming too soupy, check at some midpoint and then add liquid if it looks like it needs it.
