Flax plant ensiled correctly (7)
I believe the answer is:
linseed
'flax plant' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
'ensiled correctly' is the wordplay.
'correctly' is an anagram indicator.
'ensiled' with letters rearranged gives 'LINSEED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for linseed that I've seen before include "Oil produced from flax" , "Part of flax used as oil" , "Flax product, a source of oil" , "Oil applied to cricket bats" , "Treatment for bats" .)
