neuters

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'removes nuts' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their -s form, I don't understand how they can define each other.

'broken tureens' is the wordplay.
'broken' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tureens' with letters rearranged gives 'NEUTERS'.

'from' acts as a link.
