This is a slight variation of a spelt dough from the new Tartine no 3 Book. I used less water then recommended and a different mix of flours. It was a tad more sour than I prefer....next time I will only retard the rise for 6 hours instead of 8. Crumb was open,fully gelatinized and super moist, crust was thin and shattered when cut.
