Mine produced mini pods like baby's finger size, will the pods be alright when hit by frost? Well, I could not do anything even if it hurts them as they are too many

my broad beans got ZAPPED by frost - only slightly though.  Bits of them went black and floppy!  I tied them up and hoped for the best.  They are cropping really well now, have been picking for about 3 weeks now.
Now what shall I do today?
