We cooked these and I made a balsamic glaze to go with them. Turned out really well.

For the balsamic glaze it's just a few tablespoons of sugar (to taste) to 1 cup of balsamic vinegar. Bring to the boil and then simmer on a low heat until it reduces to a syrup. The longer it simmers the less acidic it will be so turn the heat down really low.
