Steeped (9)
I believe the answer is:
marinated
'steeped' is the definition.
(marinating is a kind of steeping)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for marinated that I've seen before include "Soaked food in a mixture before cooking" , "Named Rita (anag.)" .)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
