Hawaii Volcano

Hawaii Volcano Ages Reply to ASK-AN-EARTH-SCIENTIST Subject: Ages of the Hawaiian volcanoes Could you tell me when the different Hawaiian islands were formed? ..and Subject: Active Hawaiian Volcanoes How many volcanoes are active at this present time in hawaii?    Each of the Hawaiian Islands is generally older than the next whenone moves up the island chain from southeast (the Big Island) to northwest (Kure). In fact, the chain continues beyond Kure as a series of now-submerged former islands known as seamounts. It is important to remember,however, that the time over which various active volcanoes on the islandsremain active is long (hunders of thousands of years) so that significantoverlap in ages occur on neighboring islands. Take for instance Haleakala on Maui: Although itis a great distance away from the presently erupting Kilauea, Haleakalalast erupted only about 200 years ago.    Currently there are 3 volcanoes that we would classify as active in Hawaii: Kilauea, actively erupting since 1983 Mauna Loa, which last erupted in 1984 and is building for a new eruption inthe next few years Loihi, which erupted in 1996 The Dormant volcanoes are: Hualalai, last eruption in 1801 Haleakala, last erupted in ~1790    Here is some additional general age information from the book Volcanoes in theSea , 2nd Ed. by Macdonald, Abbott and Peterson (1983).This book can be purchased at: www.uhpress.hawaii.edu . Island Volcano Age (million years) Hawaii Mauna Loa 0.1-0.5 Kohala 0.06-0.45 Maui Haleakala 0.41-0.86 West Maui 1.2-1.6 Kahoolawe Kahoolawe 1.0 Lanai Lanai 0.81-1.5 Molokai East Molokai 1.3-1.75 West Molokai 1.5-1.8 Oahu Post Errosional 0.03-1.3 Koolau 1.8-2.6 Waianae 2.2-3.8 Kauai Koloa 1.41-1.43 Makaweli 3.5-4.1 Napali 4.4-5.7 Nihoa Nihoa 7.5 Necker Necker 11.3 Dr. Ken Rubin, Associate Professor and Mike Garcia, Professor Department of Geology and Geophysics University of Hawaii, Honolulu, HI 96822 Return to the Ask-An-Earth-Scientist © page

No fancy ingredients, and no special spices. When I think of Hawaiian food, I think of only 2 places...today, I made a trip to the one that stands out in my mind the most, Helena's Hawaiian Food. Why do I remember this place? Well, it was actually the first place that I had ever eaten Hawaiian food at about 27 or so years ago, and although the shop has moved once since the first time I was here, the food is still the same. Helen Chock, owner of Helena's, has been in business for almost 60 years and is the owner/chef of first Hawaii restaurant to be honored with the James Beard Foundation's Regional Classics Restaurant Award in 2000. Mrs. Chock, who's in her late 80s, still works at the restaurant daily...how's that for dedication? Today, the restaurant is quiet. There are a few groups of people eating here at 1:30 pm and a few tourists have just happened to walk in, mentioning that they had read about the place in the Zagat Survey. After I'm seated, the waitress comes over to take my order with a smile and a glass of ice cold water in hand (thank you)! Gosh...it's hot outside today! Since I'm eating alone, I can't order too much (otherwise I won't eat it all), so instead of ordering something on the pre-set menu, I order dishes ala carte. First, I start with a bowl of poi (small bowl, US$1.75). Poi is a staple of the Native Hawaiian diet, much like rice is a staple in most Asian diets. Poi is made by first steaming, baking or boiling the taro corm/tuber and then pounding with water to produce poi. There is a distinct taste that's very hard to describe, but other than that, there is very little flavor to this at all. Second on my list to order is the luau squid (US$2.75). I know what you're thinking...what is that? Well, squid luau , is squid that has been cooked with luau (taro) leaves and coconut milk. That said, this is one of the best that I've ever tasted. Smooth and creamy, with not too much coconut milk, but just enough to enhance the flavor of the luau leaves. There were generous portions of melt-in-your-mouth squid to be found in this dish as well! The last dish that I had is probably one that this place is most famous for, the pipikaula-style short ribs (small order, US$3.50). Pipikaula is similar to beef jerky. Traditionally, it's prepared by first rubbing strips of beef with coarse salt and hanging to dry until the outside is dry and the inside is still juicy (normally about 2 days). Helena's makes the pipikaula-style short ribs in a similar fashion, hanging the pieces of short ribs over the stove in the kitchen to dry. My guess is that right before serving, the short ribs are quickly pan fried to give it a bit of "crunch". The outside was crispy, the inside moist and tender, and the meat had just the right amount of fat to make this a winner! As far as flavor, this had just the right hint of salt, not too much and not too little! Ahhhh....... The meal is rounded out by a small serving of raw Maui onions, red alae salt (the red color comes from clay) and haupia (which is a coconut flavored dessert, similar in texture to a really firm pudding). All in all, this was a simple, yet satisfying meal. As I left the restaurant, I wondered why I don't come here more often. Since I couldn't answer that, I guess that means that I will be here more often to enjoy more of this fantastic food!

I've always wondered what "local" hawaiian food was like. thanks for the post : ) Posted by: Renee | June 08, 2004 at 08:14 AM Renee, Thanks. I'll be posting more soon! It's pretty much the kind of food you'd get if you went to a luau only I think home cooked, or the food from certain restaurants, is much better. I'll be posting more in a couple of weeks if not sooner! Posted by: Reid | June 09, 2004 at 12:04 AM hi Reid wow. Hawaii has really interesting-looking food. Is the taro that you mentioned in poi the same with the "taro" in japanese? hehe. The squid luau did send off negative message on first sight. It looks to me like a mixture of green curry and pureed spinach :p were you put off by the sight the first time you tried it? Posted by: pinkcocoa | October 06, 2004 at 10:01 PM Hi PinkCocoa, I'm really not sure if it's the same taro that Japanese people use. I'll have to check up on that. The squid luau is actually something like frozen spinach (but more like collard greens) that have been cooked for a long time. It also has coconut milk in it. Actually, upon first sight, it looks kind of disgusting and a lot like baby food! Posted by: Reid | October 07, 2004 at 06:55 PM Very interesting .... looks can be deceiving. I'm sure the poi and squid luau taste better than they look. Hawaiians are famous for their BBQs too, no? And taro = yam, yes? Posted by: FatMan Seoul | October 07, 2004 at 07:14 PM Hi FatMan, Well, poi is actually quite bland and tasteless, sort of like how rice is. The flavor is so subtle that you hardly notice it. Many Hawaiians that I know like to eat it when it gets sour, usually two or more days old. Some even like to eat it when mold starts to grow on top like scum (usually after about 4 or 5 days). The squid luau is actually really good. It's squid and luau leaves (which is the leaf from a taro plant) which are cooked in coconut milk until tender. Plain cooked luau leaves taste a bit like spinach. I don't believe that taro is the same thing as a yam. It is a tuber related to the Japanese araimo (dasheen), or bun long (Chinese taro). As far as barbecues go, I don't think that Hawaiians are that well known for it. If you're talking about traditional Hawaiian cooking most of it was done in an imu (an earthen pit filled with hot lava rocks/coals). Posted by: Reid | October 07, 2004 at 11:08 PM okie. i gotta try this squid luau if ever i go to Hawaii. ;-) but i am not so sure about eating mouldy poi. i never know we can eat mouldy food and not feel sick. have you tried the mouldy version? sour version reminds me of yogurt. Hawaiian food looks really interesting. i wonder if there's any hawaiian restaurants in sydney. i agree with fatman: looks can be deceiving. smells can be deceiving too. think durian and smelly tofu. it's yummmm to those who know how to enjoy them. ;-) Posted by: pinkcocoa | October 07, 2004 at 11:33 PM Ya ya ... imu BBQ. Watched it on Discovery Travel Channel. pinkcocoa, yeah .... durian and petai (smelly beans) in South East Asia, smelly tofu in HK, nato in Japan, mouldy cheese in Europe, all exquisite to some but nasty to others. :) Posted by: FatMan Seoul | October 08, 2004 at 07:02 AM Hi pinkcocoa, No, I can't bring myself to eat poi that's more than a day old. By then, it's already become just a tad bit sour. Look certainly are deceiving when it comes to food! Hey FatMan, I agree with what you said about natto and the like. There are just some things that take getting used to. Never had fresh durian, but I'm looking forward to it. Posted by: Reid | October 08, 2004 at 07:09 PM was in hawaii last week and planning to eat at sugoi but was closed so we ended up at young's fish market for lunch. have not seen a writeup on the place. very ono Posted by: twobacas | February 12, 2005 at 06:48 PM Hi twobacas, Thanks for stopping by my blog. I haven't had a chance to do a write up on Young's Fishmarket yet, but I will do so sometime this week. I'm having it for lunch on Monday (I think).
