For best flavor, use high-quality mayonnaise and freshly grated ginger. Toast the pecans lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor. If you don't have white pepper, a pinch of black pepper will also work. This salad can be made a day in advance. Just be sure to store it in the refrigerator. For a creamier salad, add an extra tablespoon of mayonnaise.

Jun 27, 2025I substituted Greek yogurt for the sour cream, and it was still delicious! A little tangier, which I liked.
