Cook the peas in salted water following the cooking times indicated on the package.
Drain them, keeping a little of the cooking water aside.
Chop the onion and cook it in a pan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, add the previously drained peas and sauté them.
Pour the peas into a tall bowl, reserving a couple of tablespoons. Blend the peas with an immersion blender, adding some of the cooking water to obtain a creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
Toast the pine nuts in a non-stick pan.
Meanwhile, boil the paccheri in plenty of salted water, drain them and mix them with a little oil.
Cut the Gorgonzola Dolce into small pieces and work it with a fork to create a fairly consistent cream. You can add a little cooking cream to obtain a smooth and creamy mixture.
Put the cream in a piping bag and fill the paccheri.
Spread the pea cream on the bottom of the plates, arrange 5 gorgonzola-stuffed paccheri upright, and garnish with peas and toasted pine nuts. Tie the paccheri with chives and serve.
