Scope for cookery (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

range

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'scope' is the first definition.
(I know that scope can be written as range)

'cookery' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for range that I've seen before include "Kitchen gadget" , "Area of variation" , "Mountain stretch" , "Compass, extent" , "Scope, extent" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
