A popular slang use from TikTok and Twitter is "let her cook", which means let her keep going because she has a good idea or is doing something impressive. In that case it has nothing to do with food. It is stronger praise than a simple π and lighter than calling someone a genius. Mothers and home cooks are often tagged with it in family chats.
Under a post where someone is making a bold move or a great plan, π©βπ³ means "let her cook". On recipe videos it simply means cooking.
