The word timbale as it relates to the culinary world is generally a presentation created by the layering of ingredients using a ring mold. This timbale is an ideal representation of summer. Fresh layers of mildly spicy crab, sweet watermelon, buttery avocado and vine ripe tomatoes are flavor balanced in a way that spotlights the individuality of layers while not manipulating natural flavors by using overpowering ingredients. This timbale is indeed the taste of summer in every bite.
