  • Let dough rest for 20 mins.
  • Mould the dough into a long billet and bulk in the fridge for 20 mins.
  • Scale the dough into 45g pieces.
  • Take your sheet of Mimetic and stretch it through the rollers of the rondo laminator making it a third longer.
  • Take out your billet of dough from the fridge and pass through the Rondo laminator bringing it down to 10mm. 
  • Place your Mimetic in the centre of the dough and bring the ends over the top of it encasing it inside.
