minutes. Strain off the peas and cook them for 10 minutes in a
frying-pan with butter and onion cut in thin pieces. Cook the
tagliatelle in hot salt water and when it's ready add the peas and a
little more of butter, to mix very well and to serve hot.

What is a "thin pea"? And what does "cook without bean" mean?

I'll bet it means young peas and I'll bet it means shelled peas, not
still in the pod.

very small peas (piselli finissimi)

And what does "cook without bean" mean?
It's a mistake it is "cook without pod"

I suspect they are like snow peas, or in this case, just the pods
themselves. I haven't seen an Italian dish like this, but have seen a
few curries that use the pods without the peas (beans).

What one would do with the small amount of peas you get from snow peas
is beyond me.
