Maybe the first one went into the oven when it wwasn't as hot as for the
second one? I guess this because the cut over the boule shouldn't make much
difference in browning. If the temp was always the same, I don't understand
why one gets out not browned and another one gets out browned. BTW, did you
score them marking a cross?
