Soften the dried peppers in boiling water for 6 minutes, drain, and leave them to cool.
Mix the curd cheese with walnuts, sumac, and olive oil without mashing it.
Fill the peppers with the curd mixture, leaving the openings uncovered so the filling does not overflow.
Arrange the stuffed peppers on a serving plate, drizzle olive oil over them, and serve cold.
💡 Tip: Briefly boiling the peppers leaves them pleasantly firm.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Sprinkle with sumac and serve warm.
