Source:

      Kosher salt
    2 cups  shelled fresh English peas or thawed frozen peas, (about 10 ounces)
    1 pound  sugar snap peas, trimmed
    1/4 pound  snow peas, trimmed and thinly sliced
    1 tablespoon  extra-virgin olive oil
    1 medium  shallot, thinly sliced
    1/4 cup  chopped walnuts
    1/4 cup  chopped pitted dates
    Pinch  cayenne pepper
    2 teaspoons  walnut oil

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Fill a large bowl with ice water. If using fresh English peas, add to the boiling water and cook until tender, about 1 minute. Add the snap peas and cook until bright green, about 2 minutes, then add the snow peas and cook 30 seconds. Drain the peas and plunge into the ice water to cool.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and cook until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the walnuts, dates and cayenne and cook until the nuts are slightly toasted, about 1 more minute.

Drain the peas, shaking off the excess water, then add to the skillet (if using frozen peas, add them here). Add 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the walnut oil and toss. Add more salt to taste.
