Varied minces don't need salt and pepper (10)
I believe the answer is:
condiments
'pepper' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'varied minces don't' is the wordplay.
'varied' indicates an anagram.
'minces'+'dont'='mincesdont'
'mincesdont' anagrammed gives 'CONDIMENTS'.
'need salt and' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for condiments that I've seen is " Contents of 1, 23 across".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
