  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Infuse Saffron: In a small bowl, steep Saffron Threads in 2 tablespoons of warm Champagne for 10 minutes.

  5. Top with Garlic Saffron Butter: Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of Garlic Saffron Butter over each Oyster.
  6. Bake: Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until Oysters open and the sauce is bubbly.
  7. Garnish: Sprinkle with Chives and serve immediately with extra lemon wedges, if desired.
