Strip of Dundee origin (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

denude

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'strip' is the definition.
(I know that strip can be written as denude)

'dundee origin' is the wordplay.
'dundee' anagrams to 'DENUDE'.
However, I'm not sure how the anagram is indicated.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for denude that I've seen before include "Put off covering" , "Lay bare" , "Dundee (anag.)" , "Strip away cover, make bare" , "Strip, deprive, of" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
