Crossword Genius

Withdrawing, took home cheese (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

edam

'cheese' is the definition.
(Edam is an example)

'withdrawing took home' is the wordplay.
'withdrawing' is a reversal indicator.
'took home' becomes 'made' (I've seen this in another clue).
'made' backwards is 'EDAM'.

(Other definitions for edam that I've seen before include "Cheese made badly" , "milk product" , "Kind of cheese" , "Made (anag) - Dutch cheese" , "Yellow cheese with a red covering" .)
