Cook until the rhubarb is tender and translucent.
With a slotted spoon , transfer about 1 cup of the rhubarb to a small bowl and reserve for the waffle batter.
Boil the remaining rhubarb in syrup over medium heat , stirring occasionally , until slightly thickened , about 5 minutes.
To make waffles: in large bowl , whisk egg whites until frothy.
Whisk in milk and oil.
Stir in the reserved 1 cup cooked rhubarb.
Sift flours , sugar , baking powder and salt into a medium sized bowl.
Gently stir the dry ingredients into the egg milk mixture just until moistened.
Preheat a waffle iron to medium high.
Fill the iron about two thirds full.
Close and cook the waffles until they are nicely browned , about 4 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining batter , coating the waffle iron lightly with oil , if necessary , before cooking each batch.
