    After a failed attempt at the Tartine recipe (So sticky!) I simplified by skipping the Levain, using straight starter instead, and focused on keeping my temp very warm. This is a 70% hydration loaf. I also kept the lid on my Dutch oven for longer for a thinner crust and more moisture. Bulk fermentation took about 4.5 hours and I put it in the fridge overnight. Flavor was amazing! This post was really helpful for tweaking my recipe: https://www.reddit.com/r/Sourdough/comments/1bavidt/after_a_year_i_finally_debugged_the_tartine/
