'concentrated liquid' is the definition.
'evaporated milk' can be an answer for 'liquid' (evaporated milk is a kind of liquid). I am not sure about the 'concentrated' bit.

'poured initially into dark meat i love stirred up' is the wordplay.
'initially' suggests taking the first letters.
'into' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'stirred up' indicates an anagram (letters get stirred up or mixed).
The initial letter of 'poured' is 'p'.
'dark'+'meat'+'i'+'love'='darkmeatilove'
'darkmeatilove' with letters rearranged gives 'evaoratedmilk'.
'p' inserted inside 'evaoratedmilk' is 'EVAPORATED MILK'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for evaporated milk that I've seen is " food".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
