The correct way is " the yolk of an egg is white." heres why: the phrase "of an egg" is the prepisitonal phrase so you can drop that out of the sentence. then you have the yolk is white.. The verb is "is" not "are" b/c the subject is singular (yolk). Hope that helps! : D

I know that the yolk of an egg is yellow - but if you are asking for correct english usage and NOT about correct factual information then it is "The yolk of an egg IS white"
So there!!! Nah nah na na naah!

if there are many eggs then say," the yolks of the eggs are white" if it is 1 egg then ," the yolk of the egg is white"
by the way, isn't the yolk of the egg color yellow?

to answer your question:
The yolk of an egg is white
but the yolk is actually the yellow part so it should be:
The yolk of an egg is yellow

yolk is the yellow central part of an egg it can be countable or uncountable
in your example you should say "The yolk of an egg is yellow"
not white
