Yes, cooked salmon can be frozen if you want to save leftovers. It is best when packed tightly and used in meals where a slight texture change is not a big deal.

Let the salmon cool, then wrap it tightly or store it in an airtight container. Smaller portions are easier to thaw and reheat without drying out.

Thaw it in the refrigerator and reheat gently. High heat can make cooked salmon dry, so go slowly.

Frozen cooked salmon works well in rice bowls, pasta, salads, patties, or spreads.

Cooked salmon can be frozen, but gentle reheating makes a big difference.
