Norwegian paint company Jotun has just released its latest colour collection and the photos instantly caught my eye when they popped into my inbox a few days ago.

Recipe | Nduja, pepper & bean stew
The latest recipe from Kym Grimshaw of food blog On The Plate is classic comfort food with a spicy twist.
