'two notes for french loaf' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'two notes for french loaf' is the wordplay.
'two notes' can mean two replacements for 'note'.
'note' becomes 'te' (musical note).
'note' becomes 'e' (musical note).
'for' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'french loaf' becomes 't' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'e' put after 't' is 'te'.
'te'+'te'='TETE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for tete that I've seen is " Head (French)".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
