Can you freeze fresh mussels?

Fresh mussels in the shell should never be frozen. However, if you have cooked the mussels and can't eat them all, you can freeze the mussel meat after removing it from the shell. You can then add the mussels to soup or salad later, or fry them up nicely with some onion.
