Repitching yeast from ginger beer?

I brewed the AHA big brew ginger beer recipe.
It has two ounces of ginger added to the boil.
And two ounces in the fermentor.
If I rack the beer to secondary before adding the ginger, can I resuse the slurry from the primary or it will it make the new beer taste like ginger?

I'm pretty sure you'll get some ginger carry over.
If you're bent on using the yeast, I would use some to make a starter, decant, and step it up.
That way, you can taste the starter and hopefully get rid of most of the ginger carry-over.
