How Can Aluminum be Used on Induction Cooktops?

Here are a couple of ways you can use an aluminum pan on an induction cooktop

Buy an Aluminum Pan That is Already Induction Ready

The easiest way would be to buy an aluminum pan that already works on an induction hob.

Aluminum is desirable in cookware due to its excellent heat conduction and distribution.

But since a pan that is all aluminum will not work on an induction cooktop, you can buy one where it’s made of aluminum-clad stainless steel (which has an inner layer of aluminum and an outer layer of stainless steel).

It is also referred to as tri-ply cookware.

The high thermal conductivity of aluminum makes the temperature more uniform across the cookware. It spreads heat quickly and evenly.

The preferred base of cookware is usually a steel plate pressed into aluminum or a layer of stainless steel over aluminum.
