    Roasted carrotsI love the color and texture of roasted carrots when they are cooked right - al dente or just tender. They should still hold their shape when picked up, and not bend or go limp.  The balsamic glaze gives that perfect balance of sweet and tangy. If you can find a store-bought Balsamic glaze, that is a great way to garnish the dish. Of course you can make your own glaze by reducing a ½ cup of balsamic vinegar by half over the heat.  I like to keep a bottle of Balsamic glaze in the pantry for quick hit of flavor as needed.
