Preheat oven to 425°. In a small bowl, blend together butter and scallions. Season with ⅛ tsp. salt and set aside. In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, add frozen peas and ricotta; pulse to coarsely puree. Season with ¼ tsp. each salt and pepper. Halve ciabatta loaf lengthwise, and spread reserved scallion butter on each half. Bake in the upper third of oven until toasted, about 8 minutes. Arrange ham on buttered bread.
