Crossword Genius

Kilns we built specially for seafood (7)

Ross

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.
