Vessels belonging to chef? (6)
I believe the answer is:
steins
'vessels' is the definition.
(stein is a kind of vessel)
'belonging to chef?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'belonging to' could be 'in' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'in' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for steins that I've seen is " Large beer mugs".)
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
