Prepare the Yogurt Lime Sauce
In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lime juice, and sumac. Mix well until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Whip the Feta
In a separate bowl, crumble the feta cheese. Using a fork or a hand mixer, whip the feta until creamy. If too thick, you can add a splash of olive oil or water to reach a desired consistency.

Blister the Peppers
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shishito peppers and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are blistered and slightly charred. Season with salt and pepper.
