Damn!  Sorry about the first posting mess-up....I meant to say....

Actually, the parboiling is necessary for even the common mushroom we use
today.  If this step is left out, the mushroom juice will cause your dough to
be extremely soggy.  But parboiling them for a few minutes will take most of
the extra juice out.
