Criticise cooking equipment (3)
I believe the answer is:
pan
This clue is a double definition.
'criticise' is the first definition.
(informal term meaning to criticise heavily)
'cooking equipment' is the second definition.
(pan is a type of cooking utensil)
(Other definitions for pan that I've seen before include "Skillet" , "'Mythical god, half man, half goat (3)'" , "A vessel; criticise strongly" , "search for gold and > god" , "hammer" .)
