Bring 1 inch of water to a boil over medium-high in a large saucepan fitted with a steamer basket. Place cauliflower florets in steamer basket; cover and cook until tender, 8 to 9 minutes. Transfer cauliflower to a bowl of ice water. Let stand 5 minutes; drain well.
Whisk together vinegar, mustard, pepper, and salt in a small bowl. Gradually add oil, whisking constantly, until emulsified. Set aside.
