Sauce – Montreal Pizza sauce

pizzarestaurant-mimicrysauce

I may be partial having lived there most of my life, but now that I live far away, I miss Montreal Pizza. I can't seem to find a restaurant near me that has a similar flavor or any combination of ingredients that matches the flavor.

Do you have a recipe for the pizza sauce they use in Montreal pizzerias?

Thanks in advance for any input.

Found this article from a Montreal Pizzeria owner, hope its what you were looking for! :-)

The ingredients for Pizzazz Pizza (Montreal, 1989) sauce are:

  • 3 tbsp Pure Olive Oil 45 ml
  • 3 medium garlic cloves
  • 1/2 medium onion diced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp chili or one fresh halapino [sic] pepper
  • 5 basil leaves
  • 3 28oz cans san marzano tomatoes (whole tomatoes)

Also included in the link is crust, construction and an alternative sauce. Be aware that this recipe is par for 4 16" pizzas, so either adjust as necessary or invite over some friends to share!
