Heat a heavy, ungreased frying pan to medium and lightly toast the saffron, then pour in the wine and cook over the medium heat, until it reduces in volume to about 2-3 tablespoons.
Pour in all of the cream except for about 3 tablespoons which you will add at the end. Cook the sauce until it foams up and boils, then simmer to a bright yellow mixture, reducing by about a third of the volume. Season and set aside.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of rapidly boiling salted water until al dente. Drain, reserving several tablespoons of the cooking liquid to toss into the pasta with the sauce -- this is the secret ingredient that keeps the sauce, and the pasta, light and vivacious.
Add the peas (is using frozen; if using fresh add them to the cooking water with the pasta for the last minute or so of cooking) and prosciutto to the sauce, then in the frying pan over a low heat, toss the hot drained pasta with the sauce, the reserved cooking liquid, and most of the cheese.
Just before turning it out onto serving plates, toss in the remaining cream and butter, and serve each portion sprinkled with the remaining cheese.
