I can't for the life of me find "pickling salt" or kosher salt, everywhere says not to use table salt as it is iodized, but it seems all salt is iodized here, even sea salt. Anybody know where in this country to get pickling or kosher salt or what other salt can i use?

Maldon sea salt (or just any sea salt), pink Himalayan salt etc. There's plenty non-iodized salt on the shelves. Every major store sells those, else try a health food store if you really can't find it.

(maldon probbaly a bit too expensive to use as pickling salt)
 
Thanks, yea i was looking at that himalayan salt, wasn't sure it would be ok for pickling. Can i substitute 1 - 1 for pickling salt?
