But a good rule of thumb to remember is you want about 1 part beeswax to 4 parts oil. Melt the beeswax and add in the comfrey oil. Melt it to the consistency you want for your salve. This Comfrey salve recipe is a wise addition to your plant medicine cabinet because it's a great all-around salve for everything.
Place dried comfrey leaf or root in a clean, dry glass jar. Next, pour in the oil – add enough so that the comfrey is covered by about one-half inch of oil. Herbs expand as they soak in liquid, so adding the half inch ensures that they stay covered.
Place dried comfrey into a clean glass jar. You can use a canning jar or any other glass container you have. A glass jar is the best choice due to the heat and the oils. Cover the herbs with the oil. In a heavy-bottomed pot, add enough water to come up on the sides of the jar. You want the water to be at the same level as the oil in the jar.
Shelf Life: Because it does not contain any water, this comfrey salve recipe is relatively shelf stable and can last for several months to a year. The two main things that will affect shelf life are the freshness of your carrier oil and the freshness of your essential oils.
