(4 from 1 vote)I think the author would cook the peas, frozen or fresh, before tossing them with the cooked pasta, asparagus and parsley. That's what I intend to do. Good simple recipe!
Question concerning peas...fresh or frozen, do I cook them?
Did anyone ever reply to this comment because I have the same question.
