Interesting. Thanks. I've never tried a "wet towel" on a loaf
before. Can you elaborate just what & how you do that? Every time
I've had anything touch the loaf--if it wasn't slathered in
flour--it stuck!

If ya could, 'splain to me how & with what you do it...and I'll
recheck that recipe & see if I can figure out where I went astray...
