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

'what to do with laundry' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'breadbasket drawn off line' is the wordplay.
'breadbasket' becomes 'tum' (synonyms).
'drawn off' becomes 'bled' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'line' becomes 'ry' (abbreviation for railway).
'tum'+'bled'+'ry'='TUMBLE-DRY'

'from' acts as a link.
