Guest guest Report post Posted June 30, 2008 I have no experience with this but my first thought was - what kind of eggs are you supposed to use? fertilized or unfertilized? organic? free range? etc etc. might be something to look into.

Guest guest Report post Posted June 30, 2008 That sounds like a huge amount of work. I just give them Jing Wan Hong ointment for burns.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 2, 2008 Hi All, I had a workshop with Tan Tan Huang on Pao Zhi (herbal preparations) in which he demonstrated how to make yolk oil. We used sesame oil and warmed it first then added two hard boiled egg yolks (eat the whites). We fried the yolks on med to med-high heat until a white light foamy substance appeared and continued heating until the yolks were brown and crumbling. I think this was used for skin problems (eczema) but, I would have to recheck my notes. I Hope this helps!

Guest Vesna Report post Posted April 19, 2014 Hi, the oil of yolk works absolutely phenomenal for skin problems. The skin absorbes it very fast and the result is amazing. Tried and true! The trick when making it is to constantly try tilting the pan when it's close to done, so that the oil drips from the yolks. It really smells os I always do it onthe BBQ burner outdoors. Good luck!
