Steps:
- crust.
- Combine both flours, sugar, and salt in a processor; blend for 5 seconds. Add butter; pulse until butter is reduced to pea-size pieces. Whisk egg and milk in a small bowl to blend; add to processor and pulse until moist clumps form. Gather dough into a ball; flatten into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap; chill at least 1 1/2hours. DO AHEAD Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.
- filling.
- Dissolve cornstarch in 3 tablespoons water in a small bowl; set aside. Combine rhubarb, raspberries, and sugar in a large heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until sugar dissolves and juices are released, about 4 minutes. Stir in cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil (rhubarb will not be tender and slices will still be intact). Transfer to a bowl. Chill until cool, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°. Roll out dough on floured parchment paper to 12" round; brush with beaten egg. Mound filling in center of crust; gently spread out, leaving 1 1/2" border. Gently fold edges of dough over filling, pleating as needed. Brush border with egg; sprinkle with raw sugar. Slide parchment with crostata onto a large rimmed baking sheet and bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 45 minutes. Let crostata cool on baking sheet on a rack. Transfer crostata to a platter, cut into wedges, and serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

Steps:
- For crust:
- Combine both flours, sugar, and salt in a processor; blend for 5 seconds. Add butter; pulse until butter is reduced to pea-size pieces.

- Preheat oven to 400°F Roll out dough on floured parchment paper to 12" round; brush with beaten egg. Mound filling in center of crust; gently spread out, leaving 1 1/2" border. Gently fold edges of dough over filling, pleating as needed. Brush border with egg; sprinkle with raw sugar.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe rhubarb and raspberries: This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your crostata.
- Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together, then wrap it in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
- Chill the crostata before baking: This will help the dough to set and prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
- Bake the crostata until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: This will ensure that the crostata is cooked through.
- Let the crostata cool slightly before slicing: This will allow the filling to set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
This rhubarb and raspberry crostata is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet and tart rhubarb and raspberries is perfectly complemented by the flaky butter crust. This crostata is sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
