Morphology
The meaning of 'egg yolk' is directly and transparently derived from its constituents: 'egg' (the ovular food) and 'yolk' (the yellow, nutrient-rich part). This noun–noun composition simply names the specific part of an egg and follows a cross-linguistically common descriptive pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Egg yolk is the yellow part inside an egg; the word yolk comes from an old word meaning 'yellow', and this rich part helps a baby bird grow and makes food creamier. So egg yolk now means the yellow, creamy center of an egg.
