Would someone please explain the wordplay
6d Heading north , a German carries bitter salt. I think answer is nitrate.
21a Unit for energy in boiling hot water-this unit?
Answer watt hour. I thought it must be an anagram of hot water but you would need to replace the e by a u.
Thanks

6d. ein (German) around the word tart going up (backwards)
21a. Yes an anagram but swapping U for A (Unit for Energy)

[JMR27]

6d "a" in German is ein around tart (bitter) heading North i.e. reversed = ni trat e
