with "from" or not

When I check the meaning of "slice" in Oxford dictionary, there is a phrase that makes me want to find out it correct or not:
"a thin flat piece of food that has been cut off a larger piece".

IS IT CORRECT TO SAY
"a thin flat piece of food that has been cut off FROM a larger piece"?

It's fine, but as you have seen from the dictionary, the 'from' is not necessary. CJ
