I know aluminum pans are super common in professional kitchens, but for at home cooking since they’re apparently not good for cooking eggs or anything acidic like tomato’s, what are the best things to cook with them?

I’m guessing it’s good at searing meats and making sauces, but so is my cast iron.

Can you make corn tortillas on them or would they stick?
