One of those types with cauliflower head in Asian state (4)
I believe the answer is:
curd
'one of those types' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'with cauliflower head in asian state' is the wordplay.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'head' suggests taking the first letters.
'in asian state' becomes 'urd' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
The first letter of 'cauliflower' is 'c'.
'c' put next to 'urd' is 'CURD'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for curd that I've seen before include "It's used in making cheese" , "Part of milk" , "Thickened milk" , "Basis for cheese" , "Coagulated milk, used to make cheese" .)
