Chef outlining base for rewriting journal
I believe the answer is:
casebook
'chef outlining base' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'rewriting journal' is the wordplay.
'rewriting' becomes 'case' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'journal' becomes 'book' (book is a kind of journal).
'case'+'book'='CASEBOOK'
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for casebook that I've seen before include "Record of legal or medical instances" , "doctor fictitiously created for consultant" , "Doctor's written record" , "Medical records" , "Where detailed written records are kept by, say, doctors" .)
