Gag spinner reeling off spicy, crunchy stuff (10)
I believe the answer is:
gingersnap
'off spicy crunchy stuff' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
'gag spinner reeling' is the wordplay.
'reeling' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'reels' mean this (letters dance or reel around)).
'gag'+'spinner'='gagspinner'
'gagspinner' is an anagram of 'GINGERSNAP'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for gingersnap that I've seen before include "something to eat" , "Biscuit" .)
