For the custard base: In a heavy 3-quart saucepan, combine 2 cups sugar, flour
and salt. Stir until evenly distributed.
In medium bowl, beat together eggs and milk until well blended. Pour egg mixture
into sugar mixture and stir until smooth. Cook over low heat, stirring
constantly and evenly around the saucepan, until mixture thickens and coats the
back of the spoon, 25-30 minutes. Do not allow the custard to boil.
Remove from heat and pour into a large heatproof bowl. Cover the surface of
custard with wax paper and refrigerate until cool, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
For the peaches: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice and
nutmeg. Stir until spices are evenly distributed into the sugar.
In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches and spice mixture. Stir until all
peaches are coated. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
To make the ice cream: Spoon the cooled custard into the freezer can of a
4-quart ice cream maker. Pour half-and-half and vanilla extract into freezer
can; stir until well blended.
Place dasher in the ice cream freezer can and place can in bucket. Attach
hand-crank or motor to the freezer can. Fill with ice and salt and freeze
according to manufacturer's directions, adding more ice and salt as needed.
Freezing will take 45-50 minutes.
When machine stops or you just can't crank anymore, remove motor and dasher.
Using large spoon, pack ice cream down and cover top with wax paper. Replace can
lid and place in your freezer for 2-3 hours.
To serve: Spoon spices peaches over individual ice cream servings.
