Gary Arthur, Associate Director/Senior Executive Chef, Stanford University, Stanford, Calif., says: As a child, my mom cooked the exact same dishes each day of the week, every week of the month, etc. Each Monday it was our national favorite dish, pelau. Tuesdays it was root vegetables and dumpling stew, etc. While I do not continue to adhere to my mother’s process, my family has identified several dishes, which are must-haves at least once a month.
