Do recipes online just never have enough seasoning? I mean, I don't want the taste so strong that I'm choking on my meal but when I try a recipe for the first time I follow it exactly. Usually the recipe ends up being not flavorful enough, whatever it's missing. The second time and beyond that I make a recipe I'll add extra seasoning (usually just more of whatever it already calls for) and it will come out much better.

I know the obvious solution is to taste as I go, season more, blah blah blah, that's not what I'm asking.

What I'm asking is: Does anyone else just feel like online recipes never have enough flavor? Do you all have any favorite online recipe sources?

Edit: Its been hours so here is the general comment consensus

-Recipes are guidelines

-Taste varies, Preferences are preferences

-Maybe old spices?

-Use legitimate sources for recipes if you will be following them to the letter

-Recipes are made to fit a broad audience

-and most importantly, the question I asked in the first place; Ultimately, no. Recipes online don't call for enough seasoning for most commenters

Im seriously going to be hearing "Recipes are Guidelines" in my flipping dreams tonight
