No need to waste those egg yolks for another recipe later.
Luckily, a chef friend told me how to store them easily for months.
The trick is to freeze the egg yolks with a little salt. Look, it's very simple:
How to do
1. Mix the egg yolks.
2. Add about a pinch per egg yolk.
3. Pour everything into a freezer bag.
4. Close the bag securely by zipping it.
5. Put the bag in the freezer.
Results
There you go, you can now store raw egg yolks for months :-)
Easy and fast, isn't it? No more mess of egg yolks.

And you can use them when you need them to brown your pastries or make another recipe such as carbonara pasta, dessert creams, eggs with snow, crème brûlée (or Catalan), ice cream or even a sabayon. or mayonnaise.
Bonus tip
To thaw the exact amount of egg yolks you need, simply add the equivalent of one egg yolk per bag.
