I'd boil uncontrollably with desire (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

libido

'desire' is the definition.
(libido is a kind of desire)

'i'd boil uncontrollably' is the wordplay.
'uncontrollably' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'id'+'boil'='idboil'
'idboil' with letters rearranged gives 'LIBIDO'.

'with' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for libido that I've seen before include "Life force" , "Sexual impulse" , "Freud's sex drive" , "Emotional energy associated with sexual desire" , "Psychic, sexual, energy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Guardian.
