Steps:
- Bring a kettle of water to a boil and set a large skillet or saucepan over high heat. When it is very hot, add all the dried chilies to the dry pan and cook for 1 minute. Stir and turn with tongs, and cook for 1 more minute, until very fragrant but not burned. They may be slightly blistered. Place the chilies into a small bowl and add enough boiling water to cover. Set aside to soak for 30 to 35 minutes. Drain in a fine-mesh strainer. Remove and discard any stems or slip off any skin that easily slides off the chilies. (For some, the skin will slide off easily, and for some it just won't; leave those stubborn skins just as they are.) Set all of the chilies aside. While the chilies are soaking, preheat the broiler and line an oven-proof pan with aluminum foil. Place the tomatoes, onions, and garlic into a medium-sized bowl. Add the oil, salt, and pepper and toss to coat well. Scatter the vegetables in the pan and broil about 6 inches from the heat, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until browned. Blend the vegetables and chilies in a blender or food processor until smooth. Add the agave nectar and lime juice and blend until combined. Season to taste with salt and serve. Kitchen Tips: Chili peppers are a world unto themselves. Dried chilies can be found in the fresh produce section of most major groceries, health food supermarkets, and through many vendors online. They can be kept in a closed container in the refrigerator for about 3 months without any change in taste.
