Thickening agent (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agar

'thickening agent' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for agar that I've seen before include "contribution to culture?" , "What comes out of seaweed" , "that aids culture" , "part of culture?" , "Gelatinous substance from seaweed used as a thickener in foods." .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Wall Street Journal and The Sun.
