Gift the choicest ingredients in town (6)
I believe the answer is:
bestow
'gift' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bestow that I've seen before include "Grant" , "Confer (an honour)" , "Confer or award" , "Confer, donate" , "Present, donate" .)
