3. should i put the cornstarch at the end of cooking?

4. isn't it too much balsamic?

5. why there is no more liquid?

Recipes for slow cooker and pressure cooker will be a bit different.
Use the amount of liquid suitable for your pressure cooker!
Not less.
Vinegar mellows with cooking, so I would probably go for 3/4.
Th honey will cut through the acidity though

Thickening only once the cooker has been opened

30 minutes sounds reasonable but again check your cooker manual

cool
thank you
if anyone has anything to add please do.

When I use my Instant Pot, I do 35 minutes then 10 minute natural release (which is important and finishes the cooking). Then do a manual quick release to release any additional pressure.

That recipe looks very suspect to me. It doesn’t use nearly enough liquid.

And it likely won’t work in a pressure cooker, as the honey and tomato paste will thicken the liquid.

You are much better off using a recipe written for a pressure cooker.

I use this TNT recipe I have been making it for years now. Hope it helps.

You are right about the paste and honey. To thick It will burn in the pressure cooker. You need at least one cup of liquid in pressure cooker for a meat.

I get leaving out celery (I have to do that when I cook for my son) and maybe even the potatoes, since you'll essentially end up with a beef and carrot stew that you can ladle over mash. But I don't think I would leave out the Worcestershire. Just that one tablespoon will add so much rich flavor.

Is there a reason you're leaving it out? I'd personally ditch some of the balsamic (1/3 cup is a lot) before I'd leave out the Worcestershire sauce.

cool
i can try to buy it. but it is a speciallity pruduct here and expensive..

i have a very strong 10 old thick balsamic. i really need to consider less than 1/3 cup..

 

[Badjak]

Is worcestershire sauce that expensive?
A little goes a long way!

Or maybe you can dilute the balsamic. Like add some water to thin it out a bit.

i will invest in it

it is 5.5 usd here but in some places more

Well, they're in Israel. I looked it up and, in Israel, it's ₪21.90 for a 250g bottle. That equals $5.85 USD. So yeah, it's a little pricey. But, like you said, a little goes a long way, and I love Worcestershire (especially in stews that contain some type of beef) so I would definitely pay that.

The last bottle I bought was just a small one and it was over $4 for it.
