Or could just be for protection.

I think he's becoming so irrational and troubled by what they've done that he might feel that the one bit of good he can do to rectify their actions is take Walt down. Maybe he's coming to the conclusion that Walt got him into it all in the first place and he should be the one to blame. This being without even the knowledge of all the terrible things Walt has done to Jesse. But I can see him making a demand for the truth, before either trying to take him out himself, or spilling to Hank. There's a good chance that the ricin is to be used for Jesse, as it was always their thing. But Jesse will have to cross Walt in a really big way for Walt to decide to poison him.
Why poison Jesse though? He's the kind of person with so few ties and protection, you could bury him in the dessert and no one would notice he was missing. The only 2 people he seems to interact with are his two stoner friends. They aren't the type likely to call the police, and Jesse is acting so irrationally, they would probably just assume he left town.

Ricin poisoning is the kind of thing you use in situations that require discretion and tact. Situations where Walt would have to take somebody out discretely.
