Buff liking to start with bread (7)
I believe the answer is:
nankeen
'buff' is the definition.
(nankeen can mean a buff or beige colour)
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nankeen that I've seen before include "mustard colour" , "Buff colour" , "Yellowish cotton cloth" , "Buff-coloured cotton fabric" , "Buff colour(ed cloth)" .)
