Is empress tree vegan?

Empress tree, also known as Paulownia tomentosa, is a fast-growing deciduous tree that boasts large heart-shaped leaves and stunning purple flowers. While it started out as an ornamental plant in many gardens, its wood has now become a popular ingredient in various foods. Empress tree wood is known for its lightness and durability, making it an ideal material for producing cutting boards, utensils, and even chopsticks. Additionally, the leaves and flowers of the empress tree can be used to make tea, while the edible seeds are rich in protein and have a nutty flavor, perfect for snacking or use in baked goods.
