- Induction stove is more stable and better for Indian kitchen.
Induction Vs Electric Plasma Stove: Recently, Union Minister Prahlad Joshi shared information about a new kitchen technology, electric plasma stove, after which the discussion intensified whether it can become a better option than the old induction stove. The special thing about this stove is that it produces flame like fire without the help of LPG or PNG and only with the help of electricity. At first glance, this technology seems quite attractive and useful in the future, but the real question arises regarding its usefulness and expense.
It is important to understand the difference between technology
Both the stoves run on electricity but their way of working is completely different. Plasma stove produces flame by ionizing the air which gives a real fire like experience. However, it consumes a lot of electricity in the form of light and sound, which reduces its overall efficiency.
On the other hand, an induction stove directly heats the vessel through a magnetic field. There is very little wastage of electricity and food gets prepared quickly. This is the reason why induction is considered more effective and reliable.
Who is ahead in electricity consumption?
Even in the matter of electricity, there is a big difference between the two. Plasma stove consumes more electricity because a large part of its electricity is not used directly for cooking. Whereas induction stove works better in less electricity. If used for a long time, plasma stove can increase your electricity bill significantly whereas induction remains relatively economical.
big difference in price
If we compare the price of both the stoves then the difference is clearly visible. While a good induction stove is easily available for a few thousand rupees, plasma stove is many times more expensive due to it being a new technology. Its price increases from thousands to sometimes even tens of thousands. Not only this, the cost of its care and maintenance can also be high which makes it less convenient for the common people.
Which is right for Indian kitchen?
In Indian kitchen, food is often cooked on high flame like roti, paratha or tadka. In such a situation, induction stove proves to be more stable and better. Although there are not many restrictions on the utensils used in plasma stove, its flame is not considered stable due to which it can be a bit difficult to cook food made in India.
