Just last month, inside north korea, we visited the border area known as the dmz. Our military guide took us through the very same road where the defector is seen.

Keir simmons on this story from london. Thank you very much. Gabby douglas has added her name to the growing list of young women who say they were abused by former u. S. Olympic team doctor larry nassar. Douglas shared an emotional post on tuesday, expressing her support for teammates who have come forward, and asking followers to quote, please hear my heart. Threetime Gold MedalistGabby Douglas took to twitter to say, she, too, was abused by larry nassar. I didnt share my experience as well as other things. For years, we were conditioned to stay silent. And some things were painful. The statement comes a week after her teammate 23yearold, aly raisman, revealed in her book, that nassar molested her, as well. From the moment that i realized that it happened to me i wanted to you know talk about it. Society sometimes makes it hard for people to come forward because you always have people that victimshame. We have to stop that because its awful. Reporter on social media, raisman added, just because a woman does a sexy photo shoot or wears a sexy outfit doesnt give a man the right to shame her or not believe her when she comes forward about sexual abuse. 21yearold Gabby Douglas responded with a post that has been deleted. It is our responsibility to dress modestly and be classy. Dressing in a provocative way, attracts the wrong crowd. Simone biles said she expected more from her teammate. On tuesday, the olympian elaborated. I want to reit yat my apology to a comment one of my teammates posted. I know some of you are about to take what i am about to say as insincere. But i wanted to provide context. Douglas added, i know what you wear it doesnt give anyone the right the abuse you. It would be like saying because of the leotards we were wearing, it was our fault that we were accused by larry nassar. And now, critics of douglas turning to support, saying the olympic star will never stop promoting strength and courage. Usa gymnastics released a statement that says usa gymnastics ss understands that sharing a personal story requires strength and fortitude.

It is time to turn to our allstar thanksgiving extravaganza. First, were talking turkey. We have ten talented chefs with us to share their best turkey tips. Hi, chefs. Good morning. Hi. This is crazy. We could make this thing circle around. It would be awesome. Youre starting us off, right . Tell us about your tip. When thor the can i comee er theturkey comes out of the oven you have to let it rest. Its not going to get cold. You want the juices to stay incontact. And to carve the turkey i take both sides of the breast off, completely. And i slice them. I make really thick slices with the breast. And i keep it the same shape. And i put it right on the platter. All right. Looks beautiful. I want you to take your turkey out. Really parent lily important to get your turkey dry. Put it in the refrigerator uncovered. You put the rub on and then put it in the fridge. You want to get the moisture out. And important, before you cook it take this sucker out. This is the wishbone. You will have an easier time carving yourer the turkey. Well how do you get never mind. Should i just leave . Whatever. One of my favorite ways to cook a turkey to ensure you have moist between the breast and the tie, to butterfly the turkey. One side of the spine. And i go to the other side of the spine. Its all right. You have stock right here. And you flip the bird over. And you lay it out. By cooking it this way, you have a moist bird all the way through. You dont have the problem that its dry in the best. Thats the way to go. That was super impressive. My best thanksgiving tip, warn the hosts when youre going to spin the floor. You like spices to get the fat level down. A great way to get flavor into the turkey is to use spices. And the best way to use spices is by buying them whole, roasting them in a hot pan. And then, you grind them up in small batches to use. In the bird or on the bird . Use the spice rub with the salt to get the skin crispy. In the cavity. And by the way, look how you got used to the spinning floor. That was really good. I want a lazy susan every time i come back. You got it. Your special ingredient citrus. When looking, three things make things great. Fat, acid and salt. Just a little citrus makes the whole difference. Lemon or lime or an orange. After you season the bird, garlic garlic a little smoked paprika. And a little citrus on top, just like this. Goes a long way. Hold on everybody. Here we go. All right, roxanne. What do you have . A key ingredient called mayo. My favorite tip is housemade mayonnaise mayonnaise fresh eggs. Pipe that under the skin of your bird. Why . Its a different show. Why do you do that . It fries the skin and marinates the meat. Welcome to youtube. There we go. Melissa has an important tip, especially if the color of the bird doesnt seem right. When you take your birds temperature. Get a good thermometer. When you put it in it should be 165 at the thigh. If you carve it, say you carve the bird. And it looks ever so slightly pink. Sometimes that happens. Should you cook it more . Some birds are pink. It trust the thermometer. And look at the ticks churexture. Nice talking to you. You have this separated here . Anybody that knows turkey white meat and the legs the dark meats. The legs need a heartier cooking method. Were going to braise them separately and put aeromatics in here. It smells wonderful. Some wine aeromatics some stock, let them cook off slowly. Were going to pull them out. You can use all of the liquid i here. None of i goes to waste. Make a nice gravy. I saw al nibbling. Were frying our turkey. One of the best ways to prepare the turkey is to deep fry it. Health and safety issues. Its kind of scary. Were going to hack it up pieces. I like to put a little crust, like a fried turkey if you will. You have a good sizzle delicious. Gorgeous juicy, crunchy. Now, i see why you were nibbling. Anybody else have vert goigo. You have a glaze for us. Whats so funny, bobby . Bobby is making fun of me because he loves me. The easiest way to get a glaze out of your pantry is one part jam or preserves, two part stock. Here i have apricot jam. A Little Turkey or chicken stock. I have Rosemary Thyme and sage. You mix that into a pot. When youre done with your turkey go over the top. I have this piece right here. Reach around and let me know what you think about that . Very moist. It brings the sweet preserves and a savory moment. Thank you, sunny. Remember spin us around more. Er today. Com food. Its a chef lazy susan. Up next, another team of experts to dress up your allaround side dishes. First, this is today on nbc. Today food allstar thanksgiving. Time to look at the side dishes. Weve assembled a top team to get it done. Good morning. Good morning. Gravy, you want it thick. You say, forget the flour. Use tapioca starch. Its going to come out velvety. Thats a great idea. How do you get the potatoes creamy . You want to use yukon golds. I like to use a ricer. You push them through a ricer. They come out. You add your milk and butter. You are golden. I have gravy cooking on the stove. I run out of stove top space. You have so much on the stove. You put it in a thermos. And welcome to our boy band. Thank you very much. Lets go to salve va. Vannah. Were going to start by taking cranberries to the next level. I would like to introduce you to cranberry blitz. Thats a threeminute cranberry sauce. Cranberry juice maple syrup,e, put it in the oven for one minute. Three minutes in the toaster oven cranberry blitz. When youre done at the parade youre going to make the mashed potatoes. We take the butter wrappers and put them over the top. And you didnt use plastic. I love that. Recycling. And the stuffing. The stuffing. I am a grownup fat kid. To get that perfect crispy to tender ratio, put it in a muffin tin. Or do a loaf pan. And it doesnt matter. Any stuffing works in it. Just use a little scoop. Put it in the oven youre done. Hoda over to you. I love my team. Lets start with lydia. Whats your tip for the sides . You love the flavor, the glaze, the shine on your turkey. Balsamic vinegar, honey. Reduce it to half. Ladle that on top . Drizzle it like that. All right. You have a great place for the potatoes to go. A great parking space. Instead of a roasting rack, elevate your turkey with the poi potatoes underneath. You have a builtin side dish. Tom, you say you have to get busier. In the restaurants, we make some stuff ahead of time. This is my bacon and onion. This is the beginning of the stuffing. And we have turkey stock or chicken stock. That way, its not so stressful. Youre not chopping. You know how you do. What do you have . Im keeping everything veggie veggiefriendly. You toast them up. You dont need the bacon after all . Not if you give me some fat and crunch with some nuts. Youre all awesome. Up next thanksgiving desserts drinks and decor. Were going to keep going with our allstar team. First, this istoday on nbc. Were back withar the sides are set. Its time for drinks, dessert and decor. Good morning, everybody. Were going to start with dessert storage. You baked today. We saved time. This is how we store it. If it has dairy or eggs keep it in the fridge. Fruit pie like apple or pear stays on the counter. Put a dish towel over it. And the Little Things cookies or brownies gets a sealable container. What do you have . A Little Something on top . Nobody likes an aerosol can on their table. I chill it so the cream separate separates from the water. And its a vegan dairyfree whipped cream. Talk about decor. Im all about the party. My friends that can make thanksgiving. I ask them for a childhood photos. D i set thegoing. Great idea. Laura, what do you got . I like to do my shopping at the grocery store. That includes the pantry pieces. Add some cranberries to your vase. A little rosemary. Add a tea candle and it floats. I take herbs at place mats. Its cheap, cheerful and everyone loves it. Lucinda, youre going to make a dessert. You have cranberry sauce. You have whipped cream. You fold it together. Thats easy. Supereasy. And you layer it into a glass and you have a parfait. And it took you two seconds. Two seconds. Thats my kind of dessert. Show them what youre going to do with the dental floss. Im not going to use it on my teeth. If youre making a layer cake you dont have to cut it with a knife. You can cut it with the flasoss. He may sleep with the fishes but he eats like a king. Remember leave the gun, take the cannoli. Were doing alternatives. Apele crisp. Use instant oatmeal for the crumble topping. And alternative to pumpkin pie, pumpkin roll. Ed what kind of pie do you have . Have two in one. Pumpkin and pecan pie. And eat stop food waste. Donatella . Sangria. Its a perfect centerpiece. Leftover wine. Some brandy. Happy thanksgiving. That great. If youre making pie, you want to make a beautiful lattice. You just need your cooling rack. And use a pizza cutter to go straight down the lines. And then you put it on your pie. Perfect.
