Preheat oven to 425 F.
In a small saucepan, bring balsamic vinegar and maple syrup to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes (or until liquid has reduced by about half and thickened to a glaze consistency.
While the glaze is simmering, cook the carrots. Cook about half the carrots at a time for best results. Boil for about 5 minutes for strips and 8 minutes for slices. The carrots should tender-crisp.
Drain carrots & transfer to a baking dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs. Pour glaze over carrots and stir until well coated.
