    I am searching for the origin of this Christmas Eve dinner tradition, which has undoubtedly changed over time as it has been passed on. Each item represents something. Wine, pea soup, farina, fish, potato salad, bread, prunes, walnut, apple. Each must crack open his own walnut, and the apple is cut lengthwise to show the Star.
    Thanks!
