A noted piece of engineering in the Netherlands (4)
I believe the answer is:
edam
'a noted piece' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'engineering in the netherlands' is the wordplay.
'engineering' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'in the netherlands' becomes 'dam' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'e'+'dam'='EDAM'
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for edam that I've seen before include "Madeinto popular cheese" , "Type of cheese" , "Dutch food" , "Dutch 8 across" , "Sphere of Dutch cheese" .)
