While it may not be medieval, I learned a nifty little Sephardic custom
while having seder with some Iranian Jews (not to mention that they are
allowed to eat legums). There is a tradition that you are seated next to
your mother-in-law. During Diyenu (one of the songs) each person holds a
scallion. During the chorus, you are supposed to GENTLY hit your
mother-in-law with the scallion (and she you) to remove any agression for
the year before it happens.
Just a nifty one, I thought...
