I started to prepare exactly as directed. However, when my machine beeped for me to check my dough ball, my dough was not a ball at all - it was very much like the consistency of glue. I slowly added 4 handfuls of bread flour to make the dough ball. It worked fine although the dough was still super sticky. The bread came out fine - I brushed mine with melted butter during the last minute or two and the crunchiness of my crust was great. I'm not sure of how chewy a french baguette usually is, but mine was a little chewier than I like - could have been too much flour, could have been the way it was supposed to turn out; I'm not sure. This is a very cool recipe and ended up being a relatively easy way to make something so different than what we normally eat. Thanks for the submission!
