The plancha is a trendy cooking method that allows for healthy eating. This device is gaining more enthusiasts each year. To select the plancha that will fully satisfy you, you will need to make your choice based on the frequencies of use and maintenance. According to these criteria, you will have several options depending on the manufacturing material: stainless steel plancha, cast iron plancha, or steel plancha.
The gas plancha, using propane or butane, is exclusively used outdoors due to significant smoke emissions. This type of plancha has the advantage of being able to reach its maximum temperature in just a few minutes. The gas plancha is generally equipped with 1 to 3 burners, or even 4 for professional use. A plancha with multiple burners allows cooking several foods at the same time on the same plate. Good to know: for a 60cm wide plancha, the power must be a minimum of 5,000 W.
The electric plancha, used indoors and outdoors, allows you to grill, sear, and cook your food. An electric plancha with less than 2,500 W is ideally suited for those who wish to have occasional use; conversely, an electric plancha with more than 2,500 W will allow for more intensive use.
Regarding the choice of material, you may prefer cast iron, steel, or stainless steel.
A cast iron plancha is suitable for occasional use and requires cleaning after each use. The cast iron plancha does not accept metal utensils, prefer wood. Note that cast iron is a heavy material. The advantage of cast iron is that the heat will be very well retained.
A steel plancha is suitable for more regular use. Indeed, steel is a very good conductor of heat. Alloy steel is stainless. Tip: if you opt for laminated steel, which can oxidize, apply a thin layer of oil on your plancha after each use, especially if the appliance is infrequently used.
A stainless steel plancha is suitable for very regular and even daily use. Stainless steel is a material that does not oxidize and has a long lifespan. The stainless steel plancha is recommended for professional use, especially for its great ease of maintenance.
