Stale bread revived with a damp towel and 5 minutes in the oven

Bought a baguette on Tuesday, forgot about it until Friday. It was rock hard. I read somewhere to run the loaf under water, wrap it in a damp towel, and stick it in a 350 degree oven for 5 minutes. Came out with a crust that snapped and a soft middle. Has anyone else used this trick on other bread, or am I stuck eating croutons for a week?

Tried it on sourdough and it works perfect for sandwiches too.
