20 Al Dente, perfect consistency (in cooking) . Take one T, taking time, out of Talented and anagram (cook) it.

3 tie (p)in

6d is an &lit - the whole clue provides the definition

20 al dente : anagram of talented. Less t

3 D - if you put the Prince abbreviation, into your suggested answer, you'll have an ornamental item.

6d is parsed as
