Some kitchen work crossword clue

38 Across · WSJ Crossword, June 3, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
PREP
PREP (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Some kitchen work” is PREP. It appears as 38 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 3, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Secret Society” by Gary Larson & Amy Ensz, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 8, column 12 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with P and ends with P, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
