The clue

The living thing that must be fed, and what dusts the board first, and what the rich are rolling in.

The rack

Eighteen tiles were on the board. Every letter is worth its place in the alphabet, A = 1 to Z = 26.

E5T20R18D4Y25S19U21B2A1U21O15O15L12U21A1H8F6G7

The answer

3 words, hitting 197 exactly: YEAST FLOUR DOUGH.

Y25E5A1S19T20= 70
+F6L12O15U21R18= 72
+D4O15U21G7H8= 55

YEAST 70 + FLOUR 72 + DOUGH 55 = 197. SumHunt reads left to right, so there is no operator precedence to trip over.

A new puzzle every day.
