Food from inn: mutter angrily (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nutriment

'food' is the definition.
(I know that nutriment is a type of food)

'inn mutter angrily' is the wordplay.
'angrily' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'inn'+'mutter'='innmutter'
'innmutter' with letters rearranged gives 'NUTRIMENT'.

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for nutriment that I've seen before include "Material providing food" , "diet" , "Nourishing food" , "It sustains" , "Sustenance, nourishment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
