Jan van As presents: artisanal salmon specialities from Het Vishuis

At Jan van As, we are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality and most sustainable seafood products. That’s why we are proud to announce our collaboration with Het Vishuis.

About Het Vishuis

Het Vishuis, based in Belgium, stands for craftsmanship, freshness and sustainability. Founded by former chef Siegfried Schön, what began as a passion project in a garage has grown into a modern smokehouse. The company combines traditional smoking techniques with modern technology to deliver premium-quality fish products.

Sustainability and quality

Het Vishuis exclusively selects Norwegian salmon of superior quality, sourced from ASC-certified farms in the cold Arctic waters. These farms maintain a low stocking density and a 1:1 feed conversion ratio, which contributes to both the wellbeing of the fish and the quality of the final product.

Artisanal smoking process

The smoking process at Het Vishuis is a carefully controlled craft. After a dry brining process with a blend of herbs and spices—removing approximately 25% of moisture—the salmon undergoes a long smoking process of nine hours. This is done using a variety of wood types, each selected for its specific properties that enhance the flavour, colour and texture of the salmon.
