Connect canapé with cooking rejection (13)

I believe the answer is:

nonacceptance

'rejection' is the definition.
(I know that nonacceptance is a type of rejection)

'connect canape with cooking' is the wordplay.
'with cooking' indicates anagramming the letters.
'connect'+'canape'='connectcanape'
'connectcanape' with letters rearranged gives 'NONACCEPTANCE'.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
