Head teacher recalls mysterious craft involved in making foodstuff (4)
I believe the answer is:
tofu
'involved in making foodstuff' is the definition.
'tofu' can be an answer for 'foodstuff' (tofu is a kind of foodstuff). I'm not sure about the 'involved in making' bit.
'head teacher recalls mysterious craft' is the wordplay.
'head' suggests taking the first letters.
'recalls' says the letters should be written backwards (I've seen 'recall of' mean this).
'mysterious craft' becomes 'ufo' (I've seen this in another clue).
The initial letter of 'teacher' is 't'.
'ufo' written backwards gives 'ofu'.
't'+'ofu'='TOFU'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tofu that I've seen before include "nosh for vegetarians" , "Soy bean curd" , "Form of curd" , "non-meat protein" , "fare from Japan" .)
