• Add the remaining 6 cups of beef stock, ½ cup of balsamic vinegar, ½ teaspoon of ground sage and, 1 leaf whole bay leaf, Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes.

• In the meantime, cut the french bread or baguette into ½ inch thick pieces. Brush with oil on both sides and bake at 325˚F (160˚C) for 30 minutes, flipping halfway. Once they are done, increase oven temperature to 350˚F (175˚C).
