Montreal Pizza sauce

Montreal Pizza sauce - Baked Pizza on Pizza Peel in Oven

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.

    Answer 2

    I know it's a bit late but I'll put a little input for those in the future who wish for Montreal Pizza. So basically I can't give a recipe but I do know what the person is talking about. The one thing I know for sure that Montreal has in the sauce is Fennel seeds and in the crust they may have put a little milk in the mix. As for the pizza with just the tomato sauce on top, it's called a Rosso Romano, it's a rectangle pizza with just tomato sauce. You can find these recipes online somewhere, so happy hunting for that pizza.
