Dry and brittle (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

crisp

'dry and brittle' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for crisp that I've seen before include "Firm - sharp - brittle" , "Potato snack" , "snack > firm" , "food in packet" , "Crunchy; fresh" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and the Evening Standard.
