omg FRENCH ONION SOUP EVERYDAY
Slightly stale? It does sounds like i can steam it back up and then use it to do other recipe. Make Garlic bread with it is great, or cube it then bake it until crunchy, then toss it into mushroom soup as topping.
Unless you read the prompt as the baguette will always remain slightly stale, so no matter how you attempt to freshen it up, it will still be slightly stale.
And this would be genie rules. No Cassandra here I'm afraid. No moisturizing.
But that means it won't get any more stale. Emergency baguettes for everyone!

Can I summon the baguette out of the thin air inside someone's lungs? Cos that's basicly a free kill anyone wherever, whenever. U can rule the wold with that power.
Nope. Similar to DnD rules on create water, it has to be an empty void that you can see. Can't summon it inside someones lungs.
So you can't even displace air?
Displacing air is fine as long as it is in empty space or inside of a vessel you can see.
Again, space occupied by air is not empty.
It contains air.

.... I'd summon a few billion directly overlapping the physical space of a corrupt politician. If outdoors, in a tall column directly above, preferably several tons worth per capita.
Some choice people from this list I have would also receive a suborbital baguette infusion.
The downside is trying to deal with the stale fallout and subsequent mess the pummeled flesh and dough would leave after... Birds everywhere would go nuts.
ORBITAL BAGUETTE STRIKE!!
The cats nestle close to their kittens now.
The lambs have laid down with the sheep.
You're cozy and warm in your bed, my dear.
Please don’t the fuck go blind by making moonshine with your daily staley.
Oh that's easy: sell it at an outrageous price in upscale North American restaurants as authentic "pain Francais".
Reminds me of some American charlatan in the 1800s (I think it was the 1800s) who passed herself off as Chinese. To be fair they were able to get away with it because the Chinese were banned from the country.
I contact every James Randi-type paranormal debunker that I can find and explain my power to them. I agree to all of their terms and agree to demonstrate it to them under whatever tightly controlled absolutely perfectly sterile conditions they want.
And I do it for them, claim my prize money, and continue on with my life.
My power is to summon a baguette, not unlimited baguettes, so I gotta make that one count and I think that's my best to get the most bang for my buck.
Or if I get to decide where exactly that baguette is summoned to, perhaps I will have it spring into existence occupying the same space as [REDACTED]'s brain stem. Having them out of the picture would greatly enrich my life.
I say "this is for the birds"... and I give unlimited free bread to the birds outside.

Have you seen the per pound price of croutons?
No, I make my own out of bread that I summon the old-fashioned way.
Slice it. Toast it. Add toppings. Endless tapas.
Could probably launch my own line of bagel chips (or bagel crisps), I'd never need to buy the main ingredient.
