Pale yellow cheese (4)
I believe the answer is:
edam
'pale yellow cheese' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for edam that I've seen before include "Dairy product" , "Madeinto popular cheese" , "Mild yellow Dutch cheese" , "something to have with crackers" , "Round, yellow cheese" .)
