Matt and cooking

So I'm writing a story for a prompt here, and I've been asking myself about Matt's cooking skills. (And I mean the TV version of him.) When you look at his kitchen (from what we can see, at least), he does have utensils and spices, and seasoning, and things that look they're being used on occasion standing there on the counter. I mean, yeah, we know he can make an omelet or scrambled eggs, but how about a real meal?

The way I see it, this would go one of two ways. Either he's really great at it, because he's got that sensitive nose and sense of smell and taste, and he's frickin' fantastic at using those to create dishes that have an extraordinarily exquisite taste. He just doesn't usually cook, because, hey, it's just himself and he doesn't want to make the effort (which, as a single, I can relate to).

Or he's terrible at it, because he can't really tell when something's about to get burnt or the water is boiling over, or he's just not good at coordinating when to do what, and then in the end the potatoes are too hard, and the vegetables are too mushy.

Does anyone know if this is ever mentioned in the comics? What is your take on Matt's cooking skills?
