Daily pursuing Eric's recipe that's edible (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rice paper

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'edible' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.

'daily pursuing eric's recipe' is the wordplay.
'daily' becomes 'paper' (newspaper).
'pursuing' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'recipe' indicates anagramming the letters.
'eric' anagrammed gives 'rice'.
'paper' after 'rice' is 'RICE-PAPER'.

'that's' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rice paper that I've seen before include "Cook it and eat it, don't write on it" , "Thin edible sheet used in cooking" , "thin basis for dish" , "baking aid" , "Thin edible base for baking" .)
