Like a custard (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eggy

'like a custard' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for eggy that I've seen before include "like soldiers retreating from shells?" , "Of a hen about to lay" , "Like an omelette" , "Like part of breakfast" , "Yellow" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
