For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeno before mincing. Freshly grated ginger provides a more vibrant flavor compared to ground ginger. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the level of spiciness. Allowing the egg salad to chill for at least 30 minutes enhances the melding of flavors. Serve with naan bread, crackers, or as a filling for sandwiches.
