Add raisins and deglaze with balsamic vinegar. Saute for a few minutes, add ribs back to pan on top of onions, add broth and bay leaves. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 2.5 hours. When ribs are tender, remove bay leaves and discard. Remove ribs and set aside again. Squeeze roasted garlic into a little bowl, and add some of the cooking liquid.
