Pete Davidson said his culinary skills extend to using his Keurig coffee machine to cook ramen noodles.

Speaking all things food with chef and podcast host Ruthie Rogers on Tuesday's episode of iHeartMedia's "River Cafe Table 4," the 28-year-old "SNL" comedian revealed that he cannot cook anything other than scrambled eggs and "a mean Cup O' Noodles."

When asked by the American-born British restaurateur to describe his cooking method, Davidson said: "I go to Costco and I get the premade ramen noodles and then I go home.

"Since I don't know how to boil water because I'm dumb, I go to the Keurig [coffee maker] and I hit the hot water button."

Dryly outlining the rest of the no-frills recipe, he said he "dumps" water into the "Cup O' Noodles" and stirs it for four to five minutes. "I eat very hard noodles so that is about as far as my cooking goes," he concluded.

Davidson's eating habits led Rogers, who has previously welcomed cooking enthusiasts such as Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt onto the podcast, to joke that he was "definitely the right guest to have on this food discussion."

Opening up about his childhood memories of food, the Staten Island native said that he and his sister Casey were brought up on a lot of Chinese and Italian takeout, as his single mother worked as a nurse and wouldn't have time to cook often.

He said that when his mother would cook, her specialty was chicken cutlets: "I still have yet to have a better chicken cutlet anywhere else."
