Kilns we built specially for seafood (7)
I believe the answer is:
winkles
'seafood' is the definition.
(winkle is a type of sea snail)
'kilns we built specially' is the wordplay.
'built specially' indicates anagramming the letters.
'kilns'+'we'='kilnswe'
'kilnswe' anagrammed gives 'WINKLES'.
'for' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Times.
