Does anyone know if you can still buy Musto, used for pickle making? If not what else can I use?

no you cant unfortunately. I haven't seen it around for some years, its a nusiance as it made pickle making easy.
This is what I use for cauliflower pickle or chowchow/piccalili.
½ cup flour, 2½ -3Tbsp mustard, 1½ dessertspoons tumeric, ¼tsp cayenne pepper and enough vinegar to mix to a paste. You can add sugar to the mix also if you haven't already got it in the pickle/
