Instructions

Prepare the Almonds:

Toast the almonds in a dry skillet until fragrant and golden. Set aside.

Prepare the Asparagus Milk:

In a saucepan, combine the sugar and milk. Bring to a boil. Add the sliced asparagus and cook until tender.
Blend the mixture until smooth. Strain through a cheesecloth or a sieve into a bowl. You can add some pulp if you’d like to keep it in your ice cream for posterity. Refrigerate until completely chilled (may take a few hours).

Whip the Cream Mixture:

In a large bowl, mix the cream, mascarpone, sugar, and maple syrup until stiff peaks form. Using a stand mixer will be helpful if you have one.
Gently fold the chilled asparagus milk into the whipped cream mixture along with the toasted almonds.

Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover, and freeze for at least 4 hours.
If frozen for over 24 hours, let soften slightly before scooping.
