No, standard aluminum pans do not work on induction cooktops. Induction cooktops require cookware that is specifically designed to be magnetic because they work by creating a magnetic field that induces an electric current in the bottom of the cookware, generating heat.
Aluminum is not magnetic, so it won't respond to the magnetic field generated by the induction cooktop, and as a result, it won't heat up. You need to use cookware made from magnetic materials like iron, cast iron, or certain types of stainless steel that contain a layer of magnetic material in the base.
To check if your existing cookware will work on an induction cooktop, you can perform a simple magnet test. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pan, it should be compatible with induction cooking. If not, you'll need to invest in induction-compatible cookware to use on your induction cooktop effectively.
