    Great vid, thx Rick. I’m growing calendula as a cut flower for market and as an edible flower for salads etc. The Greeks suggested that calendula was so good for you that even ‘gazing at it’ will give healing benefit! I shall give making a calendula cream a try. Peace out dude!

    Hi Rick, professional video you’ve made!

    I have got a few questions about it.
    How stable is your cream? because beeswax is well known not be a very ‘strong’ emulsifier (but indeed stronger than egg yolk as you mentioned ;) You also won’t need a hand blender with a stronger emulsifier I guess.

    How is the consistency of the cream? How is the spreadability?

    Do you measure the temperature of the oil before and after heating? And do you stir until cooling?

    Thank you!

    @Malvarenga92 Hi, a water based preparation would be an ‘infusion’ or a ‘decoction’ – see my other herbalism videos for instructions

  • Malvarenga92 says:

    just quick question, i was looking through your videos to see how i can make a water base herbalism preparation? please thank you.

    @TK42138 I’m not a big fan of soy or soy products due to the misleading and aggresive marketing of this highly profitable, mostly GMO plant. I wont touch chocolate that has Soy Lecithin in it.
    GM soy is created by haphazardly blasting a gene into the soybean that allows the bean to be resistant to the cytotoxic effects of Roundup weed/plant killer. They have also been genetically altered with a promoter virus to ensure the gene slips past the immune system of the plant. Err, no thanks! :o )

  • TK42138 says:

    Another fascinating video Rick.
    What about Lecithin as an emulsifier? I believe it’s a natural byproduct of Soya and is taken by those who have problems breaking down fats in their diet.

    @slanesteve Thanks for the comments – yes these are just reference videos designed to attach to the herbal videos that i’ll be putting up over the coming months. In each herbal video I hope to be going over some of the more common herbs. At the moment, I’m not 100% sure which herbs I’ll be using.

  • slanesteve says:

    It might be nice to provide a recommendation of herbs to initially purchase. I see you’ve got quite a collection of herbs already. Can you tell us which herbs you purchased to start with?
    Thanks for all your hard work! It’s appreciated!
    Steve

  • rickvanman says:

    @bearlysceneranch too early to tell yet – i’ll do a book reccomendation video as soon as Ive spent some time working with them.

  • bearlysceneranch says:

    Is there a book of recipes for things like this you would recommend?

  • rickvanman says:

    @brelewis1821 You can add vitamin E oil to the miz to aid preservation. I’m not sure about the ingredients you suggested – I might know more later on :o )

  • brelewis1821 says:

    @rickvanman could i add a preservative like rosemary oil extract or phenonip to the cream and it last longer or will it mess up the cream

  • rickvanman says:

    @GamingReviewsLive thanks for the great comments :o )

  • rickvanman says:

    @Glen1040 I did ponder it, but prefer to make this information available to anyone who wants it for free :o )

  • rickvanman says:

    @browntroutfisherman thanks for the great comments :o )

  • rickvanman says:

    @darthhamsterreturns Thanks Alasdair, glad you like them :o )

  • rickvanman says:

    @Nibiru128 LOL! Thanks for the comment. No tardis, but certainly hard work. Took 2 weeks over-all including the scripting and research time. I guess you just have to make time somehow :o )

  • Nibiru128 says:

    I am simply amazed at the sheer professional style of this series. All the hard work that must have been done in just the research alone! How do you find the time?
    I suspect our Rick has a TARDIS!
