In this case you need to store query text along with its plan name.
This will allow you to simply execute the plan each time a previously
parsed/planned query is executed.

However storing raw queries can be a *very* expensive operation, not
to mention the high cost of performing comparison on them. Due to the
associated cost, I'll
recommend using(and storing) hashes for query text.

If I were you, i'll write the hash calculation and storage and
retrieval functions in C and the top level function in Plpgsql.

Hope that helps.
