Rare cream deli took back (9)
I believe the answer is:
reclaimed
'took back' is the definition.
(to reclaim something is to take it back)
'rare cream deli' is the wordplay.
'rare' indicates anagramming the letters.
'cream'+'deli'='creamdeli'
'creamdeli' with letters rearranged gives 'RECLAIMED'.
(Other definitions for reclaimed that I've seen before include "Recovered, like fenland" , "Salvaged" , "Retrieved" .)
