Never fear, the Thanksgiving pie queen is here.

Melissa Clark has been in the kitchen tweaking, improving and possibly perfecting three iconic Thanksgiving pies. nyti.ms/3x7QyQ8
“Though I’ve long been a fan of using butternut squash for my pumpkin pie, I improved the roasting method to get the most caramelization and deepest flavor,” Clark writes. nyti.ms/3x0bgkW
“Most apple pie recipes in the United States today call for raw sliced apples,” Clark writes. “But once I started precooking, I became a convert.” Here’s why it works: nyti.ms/3x0bgkW
“The more nuts you can fit into your pie pan, covered with the least amount of goo to hold them in place, the better the final pie,” Clark writes. Her recipe includes other tweaks for a better pie:

This Thanksgiving menu minimizes effort and maximizes flavor. It’s perfect if you’re hosting your first holiday, or you want to spend less time in the kitchen than in years past. nyti.ms/3Fvmml4
A bone-in turkey breast is much easier to cook than a whole bird. Our cooking columnist @ericjoonho likes his Thanksgiving turkey "slathered in butter, showered with salt and pepper and popped into a moderately hot oven to get crispy." nyti.ms/3Cx6SLz Image
@ericjoonho The last thing you want to do on Thanksgiving is rush just before dinnertime. This make-ahead gravy relies on a base of caramelized red onion, with nutritional yeast as an optional umami enhancer to add nuance and depth. nyti.ms/3Cx6SLz Image

The quest for the Democratic Republic of Congo's cobalt, which is essential to making electric car batteries, shows how the clean energy revolution is caught up in gamesmanship, greed and exploitation, a Times investigation found. nyti.ms/3oKBswf
Outsiders exploiting Congo's natural treasures are following a tired colonial-era pattern. With more than two-thirds of the world's cobalt production coming from Congo, it's once again the site of a power struggle as automakers pivot to electric cars. nyti.ms/3oKBswf
In particular, a rivalry between China and the U.S. could have far-reaching implications for the clean energy revolution. Chinese firms own or finance 15 of 19 cobalt mines in Congo, which suppliers for American automakers like Tesla depend on. nyti.ms/3oKBswf

Twenty-three wealthy countries are responsible for 50% of historical carbon dioxide emissions. At the UN climate summit, one of the biggest fights is whether these countries should compensate poorer nations for the damages caused by rising temperatures. nyti.ms/3c8KGwA
These rich countries account for just 12% of the global population today, but are responsible for half of the CO2 emissions over the past 170 years.
The U.S. has emitted the most carbon dioxide historically — almost a quarter of all emissions. More than 150 countries are responsible for the other 50% of CO2 emissions, with China emitting the largest share.

Fresh from their assault on the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, Donald Trump and his allies are exporting their strategy to Brazil to support President Jair Bolsonaro's re-election bid — and sow doubt in the event that he loses. nyti.ms/3F9a5Tb
For American ideologues pushing a nationalist movement, Brazil is one of the most important pieces on the global chess board. It's the dominant force in South America and home to an overwhelmingly Christian population that continues to shift to the right. nyti.ms/3D8hcuw Image

For Bolsonaro, the support from the Trump world is coming at a crucial time. His poll numbers are falling. A Supreme Court investigation is closing in. And last month, a congressional panel recommended that he be charged with crimes against humanity.

Covid vaccines authorized in the U.S. remain highly effective against severe disease and hospitalization for most people. But the protection against infection, with or without symptoms, has fallen. Take a look. nyti.ms/3Dc8vPO
A study in England examined the vaccines’ effectiveness against the Delta variant over time. It found that the Pfizer vaccine is about 90% effective at preventing symptomatic infection two weeks after the second dose but drops to 70% effective after five months. Image
Two other studies looked at the vaccines’ effectiveness at preventing any infection from Delta, symptomatic or not. Both studies found that the vaccines’ protection dropped over time. nyti.ms/3Dc8vPO Image

China's Communist Party is meeting to decide whether to rewrite history and place Xi Jinping among the party’s era-defining leaders.

This would give him the same rank as Mao Zedong, and is sure to become the focus of an intense propaganda campaign. nyti.ms/3F5F6aJ
The Chinese Communist Party is poised to justify extending Xi Jinping's rule for a third five-year term. This would reassess the party’s 100-year history. nyti.ms/3wAwNk1
The meeting, or "plenum," is a big deal in Chinese politics. Devoted to Communist Party history, it shows just how much controlling the past matters to the party.

Previous gatherings have brought major changes. nyti.ms/3qslA47
